Begonia soli-mutata, commonly referred to as the 'Sun Changing Begonia' is prized by collectors for its pebbly textured foliage that changes colors with light intensity - varies from dark brown to yellow green with lime green veins and rusty red leaf margins.  Evergreen, rhizomatous with a creeping, compact growth habit.

Begonias enjoy lots of bright indirect light, but no direct sun. These can grow in artificial light like fluorescent, although experiences vary. Let the top of the soil dry before watering again. They enjoy a good soak, but need to dry out mostly between watering. They like warmer temperatures and should not be subjected to under 60 degrees. Although Begonias like humidity, they do not like being misted. Because of their textured surface, molds and mildew can form if the plant leaves are overly wet.
