Rex Begonia (Begonia rex-cultorum)

The Rex Begonia (Begonia rex-cultorum), also known as the “King Begonia”, is a show-stopping indoor plant cherished for its vibrant foliage rather than flowers. Each leaf is a masterpiece — blending shades of green, pink, silver, purple, and deep red in mesmerizing swirls and patterns.

Perfect for plant lovers in Lahore, Rex Begonia adds an artistic and elegant touch to your home or office décor. It thrives best in bright, indirect light, making it a fantastic choice for tabletops, windowsills, and shaded balconies.
