It features bright green peltate (shield shaped) leaves often edged in rust red, and produces clusters of vibrant yellow flowers a relatively rare trait among begonias.

Begonia scapigera is a rhizomatous African begonia species native to Cameroon and other parts of West/Central Africa. It features bright green peltate (shield-shaped) leaves often edged in rust red, and produces clusters of vibrant yellow flowers — a relatively rare trait among begonias. It is adapted to warm, humid, low-light under-canopy rainforest conditions, and thus prefers high humidity and indirect light when grown indoors or in a terrarium.
