Begonia Maculata wightii, Angel Wings or Polka Dot Begonia.
The asymmetrical leaves of the Begonia maculata are show-stopping with a sweeping graceful wing that is deep scarlet underside and an upper surface covered with graphic silvery spots. The Begonia maculata 'Wightii' is the one spotted begonia that grows clusters of greenish-white flowers with yellow centers.
Cane-type begonias are some of the best-performing and easiest begonias to grow. This most recognizable type of begonias are a tropical plant, native to Brazil, and as such, temperatures between 65 and 70 are best. Temperatures below 60 degrees can cause the plant to wilt. Begonia maculata needs a fair level of humidity, but not too much; misting or placement near a humidifier helps if you live in dry conditions. Or placing over some watered pebbles in aa tray.
Kokedamas are an ancient form of Japanese Bonsai that dates to around 1600 AD. These living planters are made with moss, soil, twine, and a plant and are easy, low maintenance.
Kokedama plants come with either a Tray for Basic Planter, Grey Patina or Tray for Basic Planter, White Patina. They also pair well with our Wrought Iron Planter Stand in Small, sold separately here as well as our Granite Stands, Goblet Terra Cotta Planters and Jikoku wood bases.
Please note that the plants you receive may be smaller and less mature than the ones photographed. They will be eager for growth in their new home!

United StatesUnique Plant Is Perfect For My Eclectic Style
The Angel Wings Begonia Kokedama's uniquely fascinating appearance stands out in my eclectically decorated New York apartment. Its long, white spotted green leaves with wine-red undersides and the mossy emerald green ball immediately attract attention, sparking interest and conversation. "What a beautiful plant!" "Where did you get it?" "Bloomist, of course!"
