Begonia 'Harmony's Red Robin' is an outstanding small leaved rex begonia cultivar. At one time we called this begonia "Phoenix's Red Heart". But we are now sure it is 'Red Robin'. The small leaves are metallic red with a black margin and a black center area. It is easy to grow and has a compact growth habit. Like many rex hybrids, the colors in the leaves tend to vary depending on season. Colors tend to dull in the heat of summer but will become more vibrant again as the weather cools.

Shade to partial shade, temp. 50 to 90 degrees, 6 to 8 in. tall, allow getting fairly dry between watering.
Family: Begoniaceae
