Begonia 'Pink Urchin'

Growers report ‘Pink Urchin’ as a small, fussy terrarium-type hybrid that performs best under very high humidity and low–medium light; it is less tolerant of low humidity or bright/direct sun than many common begonias. Many growers note plants can arrive stressed and be slow to establish after shipping, but will rebound and produce steady new growth when kept in a sealed/cloche or terrarium environment.
