begonias impress with their appearance, colors, patterns and varied shapes, as well as their pretty flowers in clusters, somewhat discreet since they hang under the foliage, often white or pink in color. The Rex begonia likes good light, but never the sun's rays. They can tolerate medium to low light. They do well with a grow light. They don't like drafts, and turning the plant for fuller light will help it grow evenly.
