£70.00 inc. tax
Common Name: Crazy Pink Begonia
Origin: "Sumatra, Indonesia (Lampung Province)"
Rarity Level: Rare / Collector’s Specimen
Grower's Note: "This is an undescribed species identified by its collection locality. It is famous for its ""electric"" pink spotting
that can appear almost neon against its dark, chocolatey-green leaf base."
Care Requirements:
Humidity: 85% - 100% | Obligate terrarium plant. Will wilt or crisp quickly in ambient room humidity. "
Light: "Light: Medium Indirect. High light intensifies the pink, but too much ""hard"" light can scorch the delicate leaves."
Temperature: 21°C – 27°C. Prefers consistent warmth; growth slows significantly below 18°C. "
Watering: Consistent Moisture. Sensitive to drying out. Use distilled, rain, or RO water to prevent mineral buildup.
Substrate: "We recommend Begonia Ladies Premium Begonia Substrate - it's what we grow our own plants in!
Thrives in a consistently moist mix with ingredients such as akadama and pumice to hold and slowly release moisture, preventing a soggy bottom."
Key Features:
Foliage: Deep forest green heavily dappled with vibrant, "shocking" pink spots and splashes.
Growth Habit: Fibrous rooted type
Size: Relatively compact; usually stays under 15 cm in height, making it perfect for mid-ground terrarium placement.
Colour: Pink Iridescence: Subtle metallic luster under specific LED spectrums."
Flowers: small, pinkish or whitish flowers
Shipping & Handling " * Pot Size: 2""/5cm Starter Pot (Established plant)
* Acclimation Period: Do not repot for at least 3 weeks. Keep in a high-humidity prop box or sealed terrarium immediately upon unboxing."
Personal Note from the Grower: ""The 'Lampung' is the plant that turns everyone into a Begonia lover.
To get the best 'Crazy Pink' expression, I recommend using a high-quality but medium wattage LED light.
Under the right light, the pink spots look like they are glowing from within."""
