Begonia adamsensis is a little-known wild species from the Philippines, known only from its native range in Ilocos Norte, Luzon. Little is documented about its cultivation, so care guidance follows general Begonia practice: bright, humid, sheltered conditions with consistent moisture.
Begonia adamsensis is an endemic species of Begonia discovered in Adams, Ilocos Norte province, Luzon, Philippines occurring at an altitude of 308 m above sea level. The species broad-based leaves that are peltate, with a glabrous peduncle, an acuminate tip and nearly entire margin, resembled that of Begonia hernandioides. However, there are differences, in that B. hernandioides had red-colored stipule that is broadly ovate, the petiole and abaxial lamina is pubescent, and the peltate leaves are elliptic.
