Alex is happy that he can finally introduce a begonia again (if we didn't stop him, there would be one every week) and one of his favorite species. This medium-sized species not only has something to offer visually, but it is also ecologically interesting and quite unusual! Nevertheless, it is also suitable (to a limited extent) as a houseplant. In this video, we take a closer look at this jewel and explain what this blue shimmer is all about. This plant in the shop: Silver Edge: https://www.jungle-leaves.de/produkt/...
