Natural Habitat & history
Begonia ‘Corallina de Lucerna’ is not a plant that exists in the wild: it’s a hybrid, meaning it was created by crossing two different Begonias. There are loads of hybrid houseplants, but the nice thing about this one is that it’s such an early example. There are a few different stories out there about how ‘Corallina de Lucerna’ came to be:
It resulted from an 1892 project by Wettstein, who worked as a gardener in Lucerne, Switzerland. This hybrid was created from two parent plants, which were Begonia teuscheri and coccinea.
Wettstein created it, but one parent is unknown, and the other is Begonia corallina (a synonym for Begonia maculate, the famous polka dot Begonia).
Wettstein created a plant called Begonia coccinea ‘Lucerne,’ but this is not the Begonia ‘Corallina de Lucerna’ we know today. Instead, that was created by Eva Kenworthy Gray by crossing Wettstein’s Begonia coccinea ‘Lucerne’ with Begonia aconitifolia.
Whichever is the actual version of the story, we know that ‘Corallina de Lucerna’ has been around for a long time. It’s part of the ‘angel wing’ group of Begonias, whose ancestors primarily hail from a part of Brazil known as the Atlantic Rainforest.
The angel wings are also sometimes known as cane Begonias. They grow much taller than most other Begonia species and are characterized by their spotted leaves with reddish undersides.
Description
Although the angel wing group of Begonias fell out of fashion for a good while, it’s easy to see why hybrids like Begonia ‘Corallina de Lucerna’ have come back. They’re stunning, classic ‘pass-it-along’ plants that sometimes become a bit of a family heirloom.
‘Corallina de Lucerna’ is characterized by olive to dark green leaves with fine white dots and reddish-purple undersides. The wing-shaped angel foliage grows on thick, somewhat cane-like stems, which can reach enormous sizes when grown in the right conditions! A bonus is this houseplant flowers indoors, producing clusters of lovely pink blooms.
