Meet Begonia 'Snow Hare'—the soft-furred Begonia with silvery foliage. Her textured leaves have a frosted look that catches the light beautifully, bringing softness and detail to a foliage display. Stylish, unusual and full of character, she is a brilliant choice for adding something special to the plant shelf.

  • The Formal Name: Begonia 'Snow Hare'
  • The Nickname: Snow Hare Begonia
  • Roots: A cultivated Begonia selected for ornamental leaves rather than showy flowers.
  • Natural Vibe: Bright indirect light, good airflow and careful watering around the soil rather than the leaves.

Care Guide
  • Care Guide:
  • Sunlight: Bright indirect light is best; avoid hot direct sun on the leaves.
  • Best Room: A bright shelf, bedroom or warm plant corner works well.
  • Snacks: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertiliser.
  • Tropical Feels: She likes humidity but also needs airflow to keep leaves healthy.
  • Cosy Factor: Keep her warm, ideally 16–24°C, and away from draughts.
  • Thirst: Water when the top layer begins to dry, aiming at the soil rather than the leaves.
  • Safety First: Not pet-safe – keep away from cats, dogs and children who may chew the leaves or stems.
  • The Bedding: Use a light, airy houseplant mix with perlite for drainage.
  • Family Tree: Many foliage begonias propagate from leaf or stem cuttings.
  • Space Needs: Give leaves room so they stay dry and show their pattern clearly.
  • Speed: Steady in warmth and good light, slower during winter.
  • Uninvited Guests: Watch for mildew, fungus gnats, mealybugs and thrips.
  • Moving Day: Repot gently when the plant is rootbound, avoiding oversized pots.
  • Haircut: Remove tired leaves and pinch growth if you want a fuller shape.
  • Fresh Air: A decorative foliage plant for people who love pattern, texture and detail.
  • Plant Lore: Foliage begonias are grown mainly for their leaves, with flowers usually playing a quieter role.
