Care Guide
- Light: Bright indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch leaves. An east- or north-facing window is ideal.
- Water: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil is dry. Begonias are sensitive to overwatering — ensure excellent drainage and never let roots sit in water.
- Humidity: Moderate to high humidity (50–70%). Avoid misting directly on leaves to prevent powdery mildew; use a humidifier or pebble tray instead.
- Temperature: 65–80°F (18–27°C). Keep away from cold drafts and heating vents.
- Soil: A well-draining mix with perlite and orchid bark. Slightly acidic pH (6.0–6.5) preferred.
- Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength every 2–4 weeks during the growing season. Reduce in winter.
- Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years or when rootbound. Prefers to be slightly snug in its pot.
Difficulty: Intermediate | Pet Safety: Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested.
