Watermelon Begonia, also known as Watermelon Peperomia, is a striking ornamental plant named for its foliage, which closely resembles the rind of a watermelon. The plant has round, fleshy, green leaves with silver stripes, making it a popular houseplant due to its unique appearance and compact size. Its small, non-showy flowers are insignificant compared to its beautiful leaves.

This begonia is well-suited for indoor growing, thriving in bright, indirect light. It prefers humid conditions and well-drained soil but is relatively low-maintenance and easy to care for, making it an ideal choice for indoor gardeners.
