Begonia Bengohensis species from Asia. At this point for us the hardest pink begonia to grow but more then worth it. The intensity of the pink reminds of the Roseapunctata but the leaves are more shiny. This begonia's colors will become more intense when placed in indirect light places. Not too much watering, dry out the soil between watering to protect from root rotting. - Ruperobe
