Description

The Begonia polilloensis is a rare and elegant species native to Polillo Island in the Philippines. It is best known for its attractive lance-shaped leaves with a glossy finish and subtle veining, giving it a refined appearance compared to more heavily patterned Begonias.

This species thrives in warm, humid conditions with bright, indirect light and a consistently moist but well-draining substrate. Good airflow helps prevent leaf issues, making it well suited for terrarium and vivarium environments where stable humidity can be maintained.

With its slender leaves, graceful form, and island origins, the Begonia polilloensis is an excellent choice for collectors seeking a less common species that brings both delicacy and beauty to exotic plant collections.
