Begonia chlorosticta is a stunning tropical perennial appreciated for its lush foliage and striking appearance. This species features large, asymmetrical leaves with a deep green base color adorned with pale green to yellowish spots or streaks, giving the foliage a speckled, almost artistic effect. The texture is slightly glossy, adding to its visual appeal.

The plant produces delicate clusters of small, white to pale pink flowers that bloom intermittently, providing gentle contrast to its bold leaves. Begonia chlorosticta thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate moderate shade. It prefers well-draining, rich soil and consistent moisture, though it should not sit in waterlogged conditions. High humidity encourages robust growth and vibrant leaf coloration.

Ideal for indoor container gardening or shaded outdoor areas in warmer climates, Begonia chlorosticta adds textural interest and tropical flair. Its unique foliage and manageable care requirements make it a favorite among begonias enthusiasts and collectors.
