顧名思義，就是生長型態與葉片形狀，和牽牛花相近的秋海棠，不同的是牽牛花用嫩莖纏繞攀爬，牽牛秋海棠則是用氣生根吸附攀爬。和園區鄰近栽培的山毛櫸秋海棠，兩者都是秋海棠家族中罕見的蔓藤性種類。在1800多種野生的秋海棠中，真正蔓性的種類不出10種。夏、秋季開花，碩大的花序成串懸垂，掛著的白色花朵相當漂亮。

As the Chinese name suggests, Morning-Glory Begonia’s growth pattern and leaf shape is similar to that of Morning Glory. Morning Glory is entwined with tender stems to climb, while Morning Glory Begonias uses aerial roots to attach and climb. Morning-Glory Begonia and the adjacent Beechleaf Begonia are both rare vine species in the begonia family. Among more than 1,800 wild begonias species, less than 10 are trailing. It blooms in summer and autumn, inflorescences are large and white flowers are hung in clusters, which is highly ornamental.

秋海棠屬常綠草質藤本，原產巴西。以多肉質的莖長伸蔓延，匍匐於地面或攀掛於支持物上生長。互生闊卵狀葉，葉端3裂或粗裂狀，葉緣粗裂齒或不規則粗齒狀，葉面翠綠具有光澤。聚繖花序；花白色，微小且繁密。

An evergreen vine in the genus Begonia, native to Brazil. With trailing and scandent succulent stems, prostrate or climbing on supportive objects. Alternate broad ovate leaves, leaf tip 3-lobed or coarsely fissured, leaf margin coarsely toothed or irregularly coarse-toothed, leaf surface greenish gloss. Cymes; flowers white, tiny and dense.

半日照溫暖環境，高濕度可以促進生長。夏天需遮蔭不宜曝曬。栽培介質需排水良好且富含有機質。每季施用一次長效性肥料。扦插法繁殖。

The plant grows well in partial sun and warm environment and thrives vigorously in high humidity. It needs shaded from sun exposure in summer. Well-drained soils rich in organic matter is preferable. Apply long-active fertilizer once a season. Cutting propagation is used.

匍匐蔓延的特性，適合作為遮蔭地的地被植物或懸垂植物，也可以利用吊盆種植，欣賞翠綠的葉片。

With the prostrate and creeping characteristics, the plant is an excellent groundcover or overhanging plant in shady places. They can also be grown in hanging pots to appreciate the green foliage.
