Meet the original Begonia loranthoides from equatorial Africa, not the subspecies widely cultivated. This more collectible and unusual species characterized by unique oval shaped and undulated green leaves, which can grow to 5” long and very much resemble a Hoya. The leaves rise from large woody stems rooting along the spreading mat. Large flowers borne from the leaf axils, usually at the new part of the stems.
Offers are cloned from a Cameroon specimen. It can grow to 4-5 ft. long and wide clump without prunning, but not invasive nor rampant. Neutral to acidic epiphyt mix that never fully dries out is preferred.
Offered are cutting-grown plants, established in 3" pot
