Begonia 'Cracklin' Rosie' boasts beautifully dark and haunting foliage that is fluted and wavy, in the darkest bronze green, heavily spotted with tiny pink dots that complement its reddish burgundy undersides perfectly and is highly visible due to the foliage's wavy margins.  Rosy red flowers at maturity. Cane type begonia with an upright growth habit, forms thick stems that can grow very tall, requires regular pruning for bushier growth and to maintain desired shape and size.

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.
