The rare, tropical plant Begonia ‘White Ice’ is a cane-type begonia known for its upright stems and long, narrow leaves covered in silver-white speckling. Native to cultivated collections and bred for its unique foliage and easy care. The leaves appear frosted—giving it the name White Ice. This plant has a vertical growth habit with branching stems, making it ideal for shelves or containers where its tall form and patterned leaves can stand out.
When mature, Begonia White Ice produces soft pink flowers in clusters, creating contrast against the silver-dusted leaves. The overall effect is clean and sculptural, with a modern feel that pairs well with both classic and contemporary interiors. It’s rarely offered and difficult to fine in nurseries, making it a sought-after addition for collectors and begonia lovers.
