foliage of Begonia acuminata is red below and a red-green above, sometimes almost appearing black. Begonia
acuminata grows 1-2 feet tall and wide. The White Begonia Richmondensis prefers regular water, but does
poorly in soggy conditions. Begonia acutifolia is damaged by light frost and severely damaged at 25
