After dressing up the summer shade garden with its gorgeous foliage, Nautilus Supreme may be brought indoors for the fall and winter.
Available in store
Close'Nautilus Supreme' rex begonia is so named for the dramatic blend of red and green that seems to swirl in a nautilus pattern on large pointed leaves. Growing to about one foot tall and spreading twice as wide, this begonia will add wonderful color and texture to shady summer gardens, along walkways or in container planters and hanging baskets. Too tender to survive our Pacific NW winters, 'Nautilus Supreme' may be grown indoors year-round, or brought in from the garden when the temps begin to drop in the fall. As a caveat to indoor gardeners, rex begonias are NOT pet-friendly and may cause illness if ingested.
