Begonia foliosa ‘Hanging Baskets’ – Fern Begonia

Begonia foliosa is a charming shrub-type Begonia native to South America, admired for its delicate, fern-like appearance and graceful arching growth. Its fine branches are densely lined with small green leaves, creating a soft and elegant trailing display that is especially suited to hanging baskets.

Tiny white flowers are sprinkled throughout the foliage during spring and early summer, adding a subtle contrast to the lush green leaves. With its freely branching habit, this unusual Begonia creates an attractive cascading effect when grown in elevated containers or hanging baskets.

Begonia foliosa performs best in shade to partial shade and appreciates additional humidity. It is easy to maintain when protected from extreme heat and allowed to dry slightly between waterings.
