Begonia Harmony's Nightfall – Velvet Plum & Silver Specimen

Begonia ‘Harmony’s Nightfall’ – Velvet Plum & Silver Specimen

Begonia ‘Harmony’s Nightfall’ is a spectacular Rex begonia with deeply textured foliage in rich plum, burgundy and near-black, illuminated by shimmering silver markings. The velvety leaves seem to change with the light, shifting from smoky metallic tones to deep wine and purple.

A compact, foliage-focused begonia, ‘Harmony’s Nightfall’ is especially striking displayed where its metallic finish can catch the light. Like other Rex begonias, it enjoys consistent care but prefers an airy root zone rather than constantly wet soil.

Light: Bright, indirect light. Avoid strong direct afternoon sun.

Water: Water when the upper layer of potting mix begins to dry. Keep moderately moist, but never soggy.

Humidity: Moderate to high humidity helps maintain lush foliage. Good airflow is important.

Soil: Use a loose, well-draining mix that retains some moisture while allowing plenty of oxygen around the roots.

Temperature: Prefers warm, stable indoor temperatures and protection from cold drafts.

Growth: Compact, rhizomatous, foliage-focused.

Difficulty: Easy to intermediate.

Dark, velvety and wonderfully dramatic, ‘Harmony’s Nightfall’ is a begonia that earns its name.
