Begonia Boomer

Begonia 'Boomer' is a medium sized rhizomatous hybrid from Mabel Corwin in 1987 using B. soli mutata and B. reniformis. It has odd-shaped leaves that are slightly bullate and are dark green. Moist soil and sphagnum moss are helpful for rooting this species.

All of our cuttings have adventitious, aerial roots. Our rooted specimens will have at least a few active roots and will be established plants. Our plants are grown in high humidity in terrariums and greenhouses, therefore may need acclimation to the average home humidity / environment. Please contact us for acclimation information if you are not planning to use this plant in a terrarium, greenhouse, or humid room.
