Begonia ‘Arctic Twisted’ is a mesmerizing rhizomatous begonia admired for its spiraling leaf structure and cool-toned silver-green variegation edged in deep emerald or burgundy. Each leaf curls slightly inward, forming a natural spiral or “twist” that gives the plant a sculptural, almost otherworldly look. Originating from hybrid breeding inspired by Begonia rex, this variety is a perfect blend of texture, contrast, and elegance.

FLOWER DETAILS

Produces delicate pinkish-white clusters of blooms rising above the foliage during the warm months. While subtle, these blooms accent the icy tones of the leaves beautifully. Most growers value it for its decorative foliage rather than its flowers.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

  • ☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light brings out the best silver and green contrast. Avoid harsh sun that can scorch the leaves.

  • 💧 Water: Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy. Allow the top 2–3 cm to dry before watering again.

  • 🌡️ Humidity: Prefers high humidity (60–80%). Mist gently or use a humidity tray.

  • 🪴 Soil: Loose, well-draining mix with peat moss, perlite, and orchid bark.

  • 🏺 Potting: Use a shallow, wide pot for rhizome spread; repot yearly to refresh soil.

  • 🌱 Growth Rate: Moderate. Compact habit ideal for shelves or terrariums.

  • 🐾 Pet Friendly: Not pet-friendly; keep away from pets.
