Difference between Begonia and Begonia in Four Seasons

First, the difference between leaves.

Japanese begonia leaves alternate, thick, obliquely oblong or oblong-ovoid, with a length of10-20cm and a width of 4-5cm. The apex is sharp, the base is heart-shaped, the edge is shallow, the top is dark green, with round white spots, and the back is dark red.

Begonia leaves are very lush. Leaves elliptic or broadly elliptic, 5 cm to 8 cm long. There are carvings and fine hairs on the edges of leaves. The color of leaves varies with varieties, such as red, green, brown and green, and the leaves have waxy luster.

Second, the difference between flowers

The petals of Japanese begonia are light rose or white.

Begonia flowers are terminal or axillary. They are dioecious, and the ovary of female flowers is inverted triangle. Petals are white, pink, pink and other colors, and the flowering period is very long, which can bloom almost all year round.
