Begonia Green Heart 6628

🦊 Begonia ‘Cracklin Rosie’, also known as an Angel Wing Begonia, is a vibrant cane-type hybrid adored for its metallic foliage and clusters of showy pink blooms. Its elongated, wing-shaped leaves are deep olive green with a bronze sheen and scattered silver spots, while the undersides flush with a rich burgundy tone. When grown in bright light, the entire plant glows with a warm, rosy undertone — a perfect statement piece for collectors of ornamental foliage.
