Begonia Maculata 'Crackling Rosie'

Begonia ‘Crackling Rosie’ – 14cm Houseplant

The Begonia ‘Crackling Rosie’ is a twist on the classic polka Dot Begonia, with its deep reddish-pink leaves and textured, crinkled edges, it's a striking houseplant to add to your collection. As it grows, it forms a bushy shape, making it a bold addition to your indoor plant collection. Though larger than a mini houseplant, it's still compact enough for shelves, desks, or plant stands.
