Begonia - Bipinnatifida

Begonia Bipinnatifida is a unique species from New Guinea. It was found in primeval forest growing high on Mount Horne in rocky places. It is a moderately slow grower, but once it establishes, grows quickly. It does well in terrarium culture. Its leaves are its selling point; they are incredibly unique, even amongst the Begonias. The leaves are very dark, and heavily lobed in a "feather" structure, hence its common name, the feather Begonia.

Light: Begonias do best in in bright, indirect light. While they can tolerate lower light conditions, they will grow slower and likely will not flower. 

Water: These begonias like to stay relatively moist - we suggest watering with the soil is about half way dry in its container. 

Humidity: This is a humidity loving variety - we recommend adding a humidifier to your home or clustering plants together to increase the humidity around them. 

This plant is not pet-friendly.
