Begonia 'Edinburgh' (Begonia brevirimosa)

From the rain forest of Malaysia comes one of the most striking fibrous begonias in cultivation. As if touched by an artist's hand, the vibrant tones of bright rose-red highlight the large leaves and upright growth. Not often seen, this glorious species prefers high humidity and warm temperatures. When grown indoors, it will spice up any collection, or use it in the summer garden to bring color and texture to planters or window boxes.
