Begonia Jurassic Silver Point
Details
Silver Point is a Rex Begonia hybrid known for its showy foliage with bold colors and iridescence. Although you won’t find this hybrid in the wild, it requires similar care to other Rex Begonias: medium to bright indirect sun, moist (but not wet) potting mix, and high humidity. Avoid misting its leaves, which can encourage mildew. This plant is an excellent pick for plant parents looking to test out a new variety.

A popular variety of ficus, the Ficus elastica 'Tineke' is arguably easier to care for than its infamous relative the Fiddle Leaf Fig, and has beautiful pink, green, and white variegation on its thick, shiny leaves. Native to southeast Asia, it does best in bright light with weekly waterings when the potting mix is bone dry. In its home habitat, Ficus elastica are sometimes used to make living bridges! This is because they are elastic and can produce pliable aerial roots. But make sure to wear gloves while pruning, because their interior milky latex sap can be irritating to your skin.
