QUALITY GUARANTEED

  • Begonia Ferox truly shines, a gem among its botanical peers. This plant is a bit of a find, a genuine rarity. The leaves are the star of the show, textured and sporting dark, horn-like projections. The foliage is a deep green, with lighter veins that lend the plant an almost otherworldly, ancient look. It's a plant that commands attention, perfect for indoor displays and for those who value the unusual.

  • Though it grows slowly, its compact form is best appreciated up close, where the unique leaf texture can be fully seen. Begonia Ferox makes a lovely addition to houseplant collections, terrariums, and warm indoor spaces, providing visual interest all year round.

  • Please note: the decorative pot shown in the images is for illustration purposes only and is not included with the plant.

    Watering Water when the top few centimetres of compost begin to dry, then water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain away. Do not leave the plant sitting in standing water, as consistently wet roots can lead to rot. Growth slows in winter, so reduce watering frequency during cooler, darker months.

    Best Growing Conditions Grow in bright, indirect light and protection from harsh direct sun, ideally at around 18-26°C, away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes. Use a good-quality, well-drained houseplant compost and make sure excess water can drain freely from the pot. Most houseplants perform best with moderate humidity and should be kept away from strong radiator heat.

    Top tip

    Turn the pot a quarter turn every week or two so the plant develops evenly, and wipe broad leaves occasionally to keep them free of dust. Good drainage is especially important, so avoid leaving the roots sitting in persistently wet or compacted soil.
