This exciting new Rex Begonia is making waves in the marketplace. Begonia Rex 'Escargot' was featured on the Martha Stewart Show. Begonia rex ‘Escargot’ is attractive and hardy. It might just be the perfect house plant, as it resists diseases and insects. It handles all but the worst neglect. This is a sensational looking plant that will do very well in a conservatory, a greenhouse, a windowsill or in a summmer patio / yard container.  Begonia rex ‘Escargot’ gets its name from the unique way that the leaf curls in on itself, creating a spiral effect that resembles the shell of a snail. The deeply spiraled leaves of Begonia rex 'Escargot', marked in bands of silver and green, are the hallmark of this hybrid that drew quite an audience when it was first introduced in the UK at GLEE. Its flowers are a rosy-pink color.
