Begonia ningmingensis var. Bella is a beautiful, light species from China. The leaves are dark to light green and sometimes can even be purple, and are heavily contrasted! It is a moderately slow grower. It does well in terrarium culture and stays small. It does well in bright, indirect light and moderate to high humidity. It prefers some airflow. 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.
