Begonia ‘RedЯum’ is an exciting new hybrid from Darren Heppel. It is a miniature shrub-like cultivar that has a very compact growth habit. It branches readily and forms a tight mound. The leaves are deep green with lines of red spots and markings between the main veins. It holds this red coloring as it grows to maturity. It occasionally has small pink and white flowers. It likes high humidity and is usually grown in a terrarium or humid greenhouse.
