Begonia brevirimosa – Painted Pink Jungle Leaves 💗🌿

Begonia brevirimosa is an unforgettable species native to Papua New Guinea, loved for its vivid pink variegation splashed across deep green leaves. The bold contrast and large leaf shape give it a wild, tropical look that feels almost unreal. This one is perfect for collectors who love a bit of drama in their foliage.

Key Features:

✔ Striking leaves with neon-pink splashes and markings
✔ Can grow up to 60–90cm tall in ideal conditions
✔ A true tropical – great for terrariums or warm, humid corners
✔ Grown mainly for its incredible ornamental foliage
✔ A must-have for Begonia lovers and rare plant collectors

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – avoid harsh direct sun

• Watering: Keep the soil lightly moist, but never soggy – let the top layer dry slightly between waterings

• Humidity: Needs high humidity (60–80%) – mist regularly or use a humidifier

• Soil: Use a light, well-draining mix – add perlite and orchid bark for airflow

• Feeding: Feed every 4–6 weeks in spring and summer with a gentle foliage fertiliser

• Temperature: Likes it warm – 18–26°C, avoid sudden cold or dry air

• Growth: Can get leggy over time – prune back lightly to encourage bushy growth

🌿 Tip: Too much direct sun can dull the pink. Keep it bright but filtered to really show off the colours.
