Begonia coccinea is a striking evergreen perennial valued for its lush foliage and cascading clusters of bright coral-red flowers. Native to the tropical regions of Brazil, it brings a vibrant, exotic feel to shaded gardens and indoor plant collections.
Its wing-shaped green leaves provide a rich backdrop for long-lasting flower clusters that appear throughout the warmer months. With its upright yet gently arching habit, it works well as a container feature, hanging basket specimen, or understory planting in frost-free tropical gardens.
