Begonia 'Cracklin' Rosie' is an upright cane-like begonia. The leaves are large and bronze color when young. They mature to a dark green with many silver dots. The back of the leaf is red and this shows up as the leaves have a natural curl to them. The hybridizer Walter Dworkin named this cultivar after Neil Diamond's song.
