Begonia 'Steve's Leaves Midnight Skies' is a hypnotizing new rex-cultorum hybrid by our very own hybridizer, Darren Heppel. Midnight purple to nearly black leaves are speckled with white spots that resemble stars glimmering in the night sky. Leaf margins are tightly undulated and covered tiny hairs that add to its otherworldly appearance. Add a little darkness to your collection with this one-of-a-kind hybrid available only as Steve's Leaves!
The plant you will receive is a starter plant with juvenile foliage similar to the second picture. As the plant grows the leaves will take on a deep black hue.
