What Is Begonia U679?
Begonia U679 is a rare collector-identified begonia known by its field or collection number rather than a formal species name. The code “U679” is used to track its origin or discovery, especially in plant collector circles.
Like many tropical begonias, it grows naturally in warm, humid rainforest environments with filtered light. It is not an aquatic plant and should never be submerged. Instead, it thrives in moist, well-draining soil with stable humidity.
The leaves are typically green with visible veins and natural texture. Depending on the individual plant, it may show subtle color depth or slight metallic sheen, making it attractive to collectors.
Mysterious and unique, Begonia U679 is ideal for enthusiasts who enjoy rare field-number plants with distinctive character.
