Begonia ‘Taconite’
Under flash light this is probably the most iridescent blue Begonia. No photo can do justice to the beauty of this small plant! A must have for any serious Begonia collector. Propagated in the UK.
This plant was selected by Tim Anderson of Fairchild Tropical Botanic Gardens. The foliage is dark and speckled with deep maroon undersides. The magic comes under flash light when the leaves iridesce.
How to care for your Begonia –

Light: Begonia love bright indirect sunlight.
