Bewitched White Rex Begonia (Begonia rex ‘Bewitched White’)

Bewitched White Rex Begonia (Begonia rex ‘Bewitched White’) is an elegant tropical foliage plant prized for its luminous silver-white leaves accented by dark veining and contrasting margins. This eye-catching rex begonia adds sophisticated texture and colour contrast to patio containers, shaded gardens, and indoor tropical displays throughout the growing season.

The intricately patterned foliage creates a metallic shimmering effect that brightens shaded spaces and pairs beautifully with darker foliage plants and colourful flowering annuals. Rex begonias are grown primarily for their dramatic foliage rather than flowers, providing season-long ornamental interest even in low-light areas. Its compact mounded habit makes it ideal for decorative containers and tropical mixed planters.

In Alberta, Bewitched White Rex Begonia performs best in partial shade to full shade with fertile, well-drained soil and regular moisture. It thrives in sheltered warm conditions and benefits from protection against harsh afternoon sun and dry winds during Prairie summers.
