Begonia chitoensis BSWJ1954 (Hardy Taiwan Begonia)

Light ShadeZone: 7b-10 18" tall Origin: Taiwan

Web-Only! After several years of trials, we are pleased to offer this collection of the Taiwanense Begonia chitoensis (previously misidentified as B. ravenii). Our plants come from a Crug Farm expedition to the central mountains of Taiwan. The 10" succulent, rounded leaves emerge from a thick rhizome to form a 2' wide x 2' tall clump. The bold-textured clumps are adorned with stalks of pink flowers, starting in late summer. A moist, well-drained woodland soil is preferable. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
