Begonia brevirimosa is a botanical species native to Papua New Guinea, noted for its spectacular leaves in shades of metallic pink, deep burgundy and dark green, with a natural sheen and velvety texture.

The leaves are elliptical, with slightly serrated edges, prominent veins and asymmetrical coloring – each leaf is different, with patterns ranging from bright pink to dark stripes and spots. The habit is upright and elegant, and the plant stands out for both its texture and its strong color.
