Begonia rex 'Spitfire'

Begonia rex 'Spitfire' is a compact rhizomatous begonia with pointed, patterned foliage in red, pink, silver, green, and cream tones. It grows as a low, bushy clump, with leaves rising from a shallow rhizome and overlapping into a dense crown.

The leaves are asymmetrical and often ovate to pointed, with a textured surface and sharply defined colour zones. Red to pink areas sit against paler margins and darker edging, giving this rex begonia a vivid, small-scale foliage display.

Spitfire colour and margin pattern

  • Compact rex begonia with a low rhizomatous growth habit
  • Red-pink foliage with silver, green, cream, and burgundy edging
  • Asymmetrical, pointed leaves with a textured surface
  • Suited to shallow pots with steady warmth and filtered light
  • Small flowers may appear on settled plants

Rex habit and textured leaf growth

Begonia rex 'Spitfire' is a Rex Cultorum-type begonia with red-pink leaf colour, shaped blades, textured surfaces and compact rhizomatous growth.

The rex begonia group traces back to Begonia rex, a subtropical rhizomatous species from the eastern Himalayan region into northern Myanmar. Cultivated rex Begonias need bright filtered light, oxygen around the roots and a warm rhizome.

Care for red-pink rex foliage

  • Light: Bright indirect light suits the red-pink foliage. Keep pale leaf sections out of strong sun through glass.
  • Watering: Water evenly once the top 2–3 cm of mix has dried. During winter or cooler weeks, extend the dry interval slightly before watering.
  • Water method: Keep water off the crown and leaf surface where possible. Watering near the pot edge reduces moisture on the shallow rhizome.
  • Substrate: Use an airy, humus-rich mix with perlite, pumice, fine bark, or coco chips. The mix should hold light moisture and release excess water quickly.
  • Humidity: Maintain moderate to high humidity with airflow. A humidifier or bright plant cabinet reduces dry, crisp leaf margins.
  • Temperature: Keep at 18–24°C. Protect the pot from cold windowsills, cold draughts, and wet winter substrate.
  • Pot choice: Use a shallow container with drainage. Repot gradually, as oversized pots hold more water than the compact root system can use.
  • Feeding: Give diluted balanced fertiliser every 3–4 weeks while new leaves are developing.
  • Seasonal care: Growth may slow in winter. Keep the plant warm, reduce watering frequency, and resume stronger feeding once new leaves appear regularly.
  • Propagation: Propagate from leaf sections or rhizome divisions in warm, humid conditions.

Leaf margin and root checks

  • Scorched pale margins: Move the plant farther from direct sun and check that leaves are away from hot glass.
  • Soft crown or collapsing leaves: Check the rhizome and roots for rot, especially after cool wet conditions. Improve drainage and reduce crown wetting.
  • Crisp red-pink areas: Review humidity, watering consistency, and fertiliser strength. Pigmented rex leaves still need stable moisture around fine roots.
  • Distorted new leaves: Inspect for thrips, mites, or low humidity during leaf expansion. New growth marks permanently once the leaf hardens.

Safe handling around cut rex tissue

Keep Begonia rex 'Spitfire' beyond pets and children that chew plants. Its rhizome and underground tissues contain soluble calcium oxalates in higher concentration than the leaves. Use clean hands or gloves when cutting damaged plant tissue.

Spitfire within rex Begonias

Begonia is a member of Begoniaceae and was named for Michel Bégon. The Latin word rex means “king”, giving Begonia rex its species name and the rex begonia group its familiar title. 'Spitfire' is the cultivar name for this red-pink rex selection.

Begonia rex 'Spitfire' grows as a tidy clump with red-pink centres, pale leaf margins and a shallow rex rhizome.

A Best Macbook…..Excellent performance , light weight, a thin profile, at a very decent price!
Capacity: 16GB Unified Memory | 512GB SSD Storage, Color: Midnight, Set: Without AppleCare+
I’ve owned perhaps 15 Apple laptops over the last 20 years or so. My last two were a Macbook Pro and Air, both with the “M” chip. I sold the Pro because it was too heavy and bulky. It had the M1 PRO chip. My primary last laptop was the Air with an M2 processor. It excelled at everything I needed to do, but, was the base model with 256GB storage and the wifi 6 protocol was for me was not adequate for my 1GB up/down FIOS service. The wifi proved stable, but, slower in speed due to not being wifi 7. I updated to the new Air M5 to get full speeds on wifi 7, a base hard drive capacity that was twice my older model and with hopes, a tad more battery life for each charge. I can state quite accurately that the wifi 7 speeds on this new Macbook Air are far better than my older wifi 6 model. I’m getting an average of 950 mbps up and down with this new Air using a TP-Link BE230 I purchased from Amazon. That’s almost to my plan speed and wireless from a room away from my router. My base Macbook Air M5 is in fact lower in price now as I post this review than the additional $65 in price that I paid for it a short time ago! With Apple improving and increasing it chip speeds for the M series and offering a light, thin and powerful laptop like the Air that’s far lower in price than a PRO model, the Air M5 series are the way to go! I truly believe the Macbook Air will be the winner for the best combination of speed, great price and very adequate performance, for the majority of users! I’ve been a Macbook owner and user for a long while and this latest model is to me, the best one I have owned yet!
