Begonia luxurians
Palm Leaf Begonia
Morphology
About
Begonia luxurians, described by Scheidweiler, is a distinctive tall cane begonia from the humid Atlantic Forest regions of Brazil — growing in warm, shaded to bright filtered conditions on organic-rich forest substrates with consistently moist soil and high atmospheric humidity. The plant is immediately identifiable by its dramatic, palm-like silhouette: bamboo-like segmented canes carry leaves composed of many narrow leaflets arranged palmately and radiating outward from the petiole end, forming a light, elegant crown with a tropical architectural effect that is unique within the genus. Growing to considerable height as a cane begonia, luxurians is a specimen plant rather than a compact windowsill subject — it rewards space with a display that no other begonia can match. An outstanding subject for bright conservatories and large indoor plantings.

Historical auction metrics and live online retailer listings updated weekly.
How prices are calculated: The AA Price uses verified eBay UK completed auction data — we take the trimmed mean (removing the top and bottom 20% of prices) to produce a fair-value guide that excludes outlier sales. When recent auction data is unavailable, the AA Price falls back to the current UK retail average from tracked stockists. Retail prices are scraped from active UK plant shop listings and reflect what you would pay buying directly from a retailer today. All prices are in GBP and updated automatically.
