Tiger Paw Begonia is a compact, velvety-leaved begonia with uniquely shaped foliage that resembles tiny paws. The deep green to brownish-black leaves are speckled with vivid lime-green spots and have softly serrated, fuzzy edges. Its size and texture make it an excellent accent for terrariums, shaded plant corners, or collectors of striking foliage.
🌸 2️⃣ Flower & Fruit
Blooms in late winter to early spring.
Flowers are small, pale pink to white, appearing above the leaves.
Mostly admired for its dramatic foliage rather than blooms.
