Begonia Macarena - Starter Size

Begonia Macarena- Starter Size

Ruffled, textured, and just a little dramatic — Begonia Macarena brings deep bronze-green leaves with a metallic sheen and those signature Rex Begonia swirls and ruffles that make it look hand-painted. It's the kind of leaf that photographs better than you'd expect and looks even better in person.

Begonias have a reputation for being finicky, and Macarena won't pretend otherwise — but give it the right conditions (steady humidity, no soggy roots, no cold drafts) and it rewards you with some of the most striking foliage in the collector world. Not a beginner plant, but a genuinely satisfying one for anyone ready for a little more of a challenge.

Grown with care. Its name may or may not have caused an unfortunate amount of humming around here while potting it up.

Quick care notes:

• Bright, indirect light — no direct sun
• Water when top of soil is dry; avoid overwatering, Rex begonias hate wet feet
• Higher humidity preferred — a humidity dome or pebble tray helps
• Keep away from cold drafts and sudden temperature swings
