B. Holley Moon

B. Holley Moon is a large-leaved big rhizomatous begonia.  The fuzzy, curled leaves are dinner-plate size.  It will actually tolerate full sun if it gets enough water.  The lushest leaves and flowers will be produced on a plant that gets partial sun, adequate moisture, and regular fertilizer.
