Product description
Begonia ferox—often called the Fierce Begonia or Troll Begonia—is a rare
rhizomatous species discovered in 2011 in the limestone karst regions of
Guangxi, China. It’s known for its dramatic, prehistoric-looking foliage covered
in black, cone-shaped protrusions called bullae. Despite their spiky appearance,
these cones are soft to the touch. Juvenile leaves emerge smooth and reddish,
with the bullae developing only as the leaves mature. Plants typically reach
12–18 inches tall, staying compact and suitable for shelves or terrariums. This
species can be delicate in transit and may arrive with leaf melt, but the
rhizome generally recovers quickly under proper care.
