Begonia ‘Momoyama’
Description:
Japanese rhizomatous Begonia hybridised by Yasuhage Kamata in 1997. It resulted from a cross between Begonia formosa ‘albo-maculata’ and Begonia ‘Gorgeous George’. It is commonly treated as a Rex-type Begonia and is noted for its attractive, deeply divided foliage with silvery and green colouring. Documented in 2009 by a visitor to the collection of Shirley & Terry Tasker as 'Momuyama' which is incorrect.
