Begonia ‘Silver Jewel’

Begonia 'Silver Jewel' ✨ is a foliage begonia with shimmery silver leaves, deep green veins and burgundy undersides. It stays compact and really catches the light on a table or shelf. Give it bright indirect light and keep the soil lightly moist in a well-draining mix. Water the soil, not the leaves, and give it a bit of extra humidity if your air is dry. Pro tip: soggy soil is the main thing begonias hate, so let the top of the soil dry slightly before watering again 💧. When it arrives, give it 2-4 weeks to settle in before you repot.

Sold in a 4" pot
