The genus was named governor of Fr. Haiti - M. begonia (1638-1710) and comprises more than 1000 species of annual and perennial herbaceous plants, shrubs niskorasli poluhrastovidni and naturally distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of America, Southeast Asia, Africa, the island of Madagascar and the others. Inhabits moist, shaded places on the old trees and roots and in crevices of rocks. Begonia first presented in England in 1777. Be grown for its ornamental foliage and beautiful flowers. In our country are only a dozen popular varieties. It is among the most preferred indoor plants for its rich colors of the leaves and because the relatively rapid increase. In principle it is not capricious growing, but has several features which must be strictly adhered to.
Bauer of begonia is characterized by compactness, and therefore is suitable for planting of large areas not under the balcony gardening, and creating tiny group compositions.

The plant reaches about 15-25 cm tall and has small, evenly spaced colors. The leaves are heart-with a length of 8 cm and edging of brown flecks and fibers in the end.

In tropical countries this type may reach 6 m high, forming small, inedible fruit. In our climatic conditions over-ground part izmrazva when temperatures fall below freezing, and spring kills again. However, without special care, even in North Bulgaria (400 m. His Majesty) to fall may reach 3 m. And if you make some very simple and not very labor intensive care, in southern Bulgaria, especially along the Black Sea could even exceed 4,5 m. (Such care will be detailed)

What makes this banana unique compared to others is not so much resistance to his roots at low temperatures, and their ability to withstand 5-6 months in peace without being killed. I tested two other types of bananas, which are also quite zimoustoychivi. But they had this ability to survive half a year in peace. These species do not survive even after the roots by covering them with mulch over 30 cm, which ensures that the soil around them will not freeze. The reason for this is that their root system can not withstand 5-6 months without haulms which it supplies with nutrients. As a result, their roots are killed.
