Begonia kingiana is a rare variety that Begonia collectors and lovers of unusual foliage will love! It has teardrop-shaped leaves that are bright green along the veins and deep green in between, forming a beautiful, iridescent pattern. You will also find a cute single white-green spot on each leaf, where the brown petiole meets the leaf on the underside. This strain is native to Malaysia and is named after Sir George King, who was the head of the Royal Horticultural Society in Calcutta in the late 1800s. The plant remains fairly compact and is therefore very suitable for the smaller Urban Jungles. In short, a real asset to any green interior!
