This low-growing, mat-forming perennial features delicate sprays of starry white flowers that rise above stunning marbled, scalloped leaves with a silvery sheen and red undersides.

Planting outdoors or adding a touch of greenery indoors, Strawberry Begonia is a versatile, easy-to-grow plant that thrives in partial to full shade and requires minimal care.

Plant Care:

Light Requirements: Prefers partial shade to full shade—perfect for under trees or on shady patios.
