This popular Begonia hails from Malaysia and is one of the easier species to grow. It’s brightly colored foliage and small growth make it ideal for terrariums. It does not seem to be one prone to melting and the leaves feel very sturdy, and make a nice perch for frogs and geckos.
And the flower,
That’s a nice one ! I’ve just had a scan through you plant library . I’ll have to ask you about Orchids when I visit with the Gesnerad Society next month . i have a few that should do well in a vivarium …I think?
Hi Linda,
I can certainly help you discern which orchids will not do well in vivariums, I’ve not done very well with most species!
