Welcome to the section of The Botanical Index dedicated to plants that begin with the letter B.
The Botanical Index is designed as a growing plant dictionary and botanical reference, helping plant enthusiasts explore plant species alphabetically while learning how they grow and how to care for them.

Celebrated for its colorful, patterned leaves that range from deep purples and reds to silvers and greens, this plant is a favorite among collectors and indoor gardening enthusiasts alike. Unlike many other begonias, Rex Begonias are grown primarily for their foliage rather than flowers.
