🌱 Care Guide

Light:
Prefers bright, indirect or filtered light. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, particularly during the afternoon, as it can scorch the leaves.

Water:
Keep the soil lightly and consistently moist, allowing the top 1–2 cm to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid letting the plant sit in water, as overly wet soil can lead to root problems.

Humidity:
Thrives in moderate to high humidity, ideally around 60% or higher. Good airflow is important, particularly in humid environments.

Temperature:
Best grown between 18°C and 26°C. Protect from cold drafts, sudden temperature changes, and temperatures below 15°C.

Soil:
Use a light, airy, well-draining potting mix rich in organic matter. Adding perlite or other aeration material can improve drainage.

Fertiliser:
Feed every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer with a diluted balanced fertiliser. Reduce feeding during the cooler months.

Pet Friendly:
⚠️ No – Begonias can be toxic if ingested. Keep away from pets and children.
