Begonia ‘Moonlight Bay’
Begonia ‘Moonlight Bay’ is a Walter Dworkin hybrid created in 2017. It is a cross of B. ‘Lenore Olivier’ with B. maculata. The leaves are huge. A large leaf can measure 6.5 to 7 X 13 inches. The leaf has a thick texture. Although the leave is large its short internodes give it a compact growth habit. The leaf is a dark olive green with silver markings between the main veins. Our plants have not bloomed yet. This makes a large yet compact plant.
