An east- or north-facing window works beautifully. Avoid direct afternoon sun, which can bleach or scorch the delicate leaves. Low light will cause colors to fade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e💧 Water\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAllow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. Rex Begonias are sensitive to overwatering — always check soil moisture before adding water. Bottom watering is recommended to keep foliage dry and prevent fungal issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e💦 Humidity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrefers humidity levels of 50–70%. Place near a humidifier or on a pebble tray with water.
