Begonia listada is a compact, shrub-like evergreen begonia with succulent green leaves and a reddish underside, growing to about 0.5 m. It needs warmth and protection from cold, so in cool climates it is grown indoors or under glass.
Begonia listada, the striped begonia, is a species of flowering plant in the family Begoniaceae, native to Brazil. It is a compact shrublike evergreen begonia growing to 0.5 metres (20 in), bearing succulent green leaves with a prominent rib of lighter green, and a reddish underside. It produces small pink-tinted white flowers intermittently throughout the year. As it does not tolerate temperatures below 10 °C (50 °F), in temperate regions it must be grown under glass.
This plant has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
