Begonia pustulata Liebm. comes from Mexico and has truly stunning foliage: its leaves, petioles and even the rhizome are pubescent (hairy). Leaf blades show variegation in shape of irregular white spots on the upper side of the leaves, while the underside of the leaves is red with green venation. Every leaf blade bears numerous little pustules (hence the name).

Genus name was established in mid 18th century: modern Latin, named in honour of the French administrator and amateur botanist Michel Bégon (1638–1710) by the botanist Charles Plumier (1646–1704), who discovered the plant on the island of Santo Domingo.
