Begonia Ferox is an awe-inspiring new-to-the-scene species that has become a prized possession among plant collectors. With its unique and striking appearance, it is no surprise that it has gained popularity so quickly.

This rare species originates from Southwest Guangxi, China, in limestone areas. It was discovered in 2011 along with 5 other species by botanists and was later described and publicized in Botanical Studies by Yam Liu & C.-I Peng in 2013.
