Begonia soli-mutata - $3 (haight ashbury)

Begonia soli-mutata 1 thumbnailBegonia soli-mutata 2 thumbnail
A single feature usually makes a plant exceptional but Begonia soli-mutata has several that make it special. This species is mainly grown for its foliage. The uneven upper surface of its heart-shaped leaves make it looks as if the plant has goose bumps. Soli-mutata means “sun change”; its leaves change color depending on the light intensity. The more light the plant receives, the more its dark green leaves with lime green veins turn red. Begonia soli-mutata is a colourful addition to a terrarium or any room in the home when grown as a houseplant.
First pic is what it will grow into, second pic is 3" starter pot you actually get.
