Begonia 'Metallic Mist' PPAF, PVR (Metallic Mist Hardy Begonia)

Light ShadeZone: 7b-8, at least 12" tall Origin: Hybrid

Web-Only! This new Terra Nova hybrid between B. pedatifida and another high elevation Chinese species makes a 1' tall x 2' wide clump of lobed silver leaves, highlighted by dark green narrow patterns that follow the bright red veins. The clumps are adorned with pink flowers in late summer, but grow this one for the great foliage! We have not found this to take our summer heat in containers, even though it prospers in the ground. As they say in Chicago gardening circles, plant early and often. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
