This Begonia likely originates from humid tropical or subtropical forests in northern Vietnam and southern China, specifically around the Lang Son region. The plant is rhizomatous, forming a rounded mound with stems and leaf margins covered in fine hairs. Leaves are asymmetrical, with silver dot patterns over a green background.

Growth pattern: Rhizomatous

Water: When the top 2-3cm of soil becomes dry. Do not allow water to sit on the leaves.

Light: Bright, indirect or filtered light.

Humidity disclaimer: This plant will grow well outside of a terrarium or cabinet. However, all tropical plants thrive with higher humidity levels. To achieve this we suggest grouping plants together, or putting them in a bathroom or kitchen which gets regular use.
