(1)Begonia Harmony’s 'Fire Woman’ is a silvery grey, pink and purple begonia with tear-shaped leaves that are slightly ruffled along the edge. This gorgeous begonia is a show stopper and is a larger growing variety that can get up to 24" high. Although prized for its foliage, Begonia Harmony’s 'Fire Woman’ will flower with small, white to pink flowers. This begonia is heat resistant and does well in that environment.
Begonias are very popular plants for both indoor and outdoor gardeners due to their wide variety of colorful foliage and ease of care. These colorful, quick growing, broad leaved plants are also called Rex Begonias with hundreds of hybrids that come in many varieties that are often chosen more for their leaf color than insignificant blossoms. They prefer shaded but humid conditions with rich soil. They tend to rot in soggy soil, so keep them well drained. Their leaf size varies per type but generally reach up to 9” long and 5” wide. They are most often a bushy growing plant, making them a great candidate for a small patio bush in either a pot or hanging basket or also as an accent houseplant.

Container Gardens/Terrariums/Houseplant:
For the above reasons, this plant is an excellent candidate to keep as a house plant. At smaller sizes like Josh’s Frogs sells it at, the plant will also do well in a container garden or terrarium for quite a while before it will have to be taken out and transplanted.
Josh's Frogs offers a wide variety of glass terrariums, container garden soils, drainage layers and other supplies for all of your indoor gardening needs.
Vivariums/Animal Terrariums:
This plant is a very popular vivarium plant when purchased at a small size like Josh’s Frogs offers. Since it does well in moist, humid conditions, Begonias do well in a vivarium and will create a nice thick foliage that can be placed in the middle-back areas of the tank. Their broad leaves allow many creatures to take cover underneath.
As good practice, Josh's Frogs recommends washing all plants thoroughly removing as much soil as possible with dechlorinated water before placing them in their final home. Plants from Josh’s Frogs are specifically grown to be safe for use with animals. Live plants may vary in color, size and appearance.

Came exactly on time, packaged in paper with no room to get shaken around and a heat pack! None of the leaves were broken and the soil was still slightly moist. Looks like i had just picked it up from a nursery! Exactly like the picture, leaf count and all!
