Most Expensive Begonia Varieties in 2026, Ranked
Not an aroid, but grown alongside them here for an overlapping collector base in patterned, textured foliage. Here's what's topping the Begonia market.
By Aroid Atlas · Data sourced from live UK sold-price tracking · Prices shown for a 7cm plant, updated August 2026
Begonia sits outside the Araceae family that makes up most of this site, but its collector base overlaps heavily with aroid growers: the draw is leaf pattern and texture rather than flower. Collector interest concentrates on the bullate, iron-cross-marked species like B. masoniana and the angel-wing B. maculata line and its named colour cultivars.
This list ranks every Begonia in our database by current price tier and live UK sold-price data, with a full species profile linked for each entry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Begonia related to Anthurium or Philodendron?
No. Begonia belongs to the family Begoniaceae, unrelated to the Araceae aroids that make up most of this site. It's included here for its overlapping collector base in patterned foliage, not botanical kinship.
Why are some Begonia varieties so expensive?
Bullate, textured-leaf species and chimeric variegated forms (Albo Variegata lines, pink-sectored maculata cultivars) are slow to propagate: variegated tissue exists only in part of the plant, so cuttings have to be taken from a specific node to preserve the pattern, keeping supply of true-to-type stock limited.
