Begonia Rex prefers consistently moist, well-draining soil. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, but avoid waterlogging, as the plant is prone to root rot. It benefits from high humidity, so placing it near a humidifier or misting it occasionally can help maintain leaf health.
Light Requirements:
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can burn its delicate leaves, so filtered or indirect light is ideal. Low to moderate light can work, but brighter light enhances its vibrant colors and patterns.
Pet Safety:
Begonia Rex contains calcium oxalates and is considered toxic to pets if ingested, potentially causing irritation and discomfort. Keep this plant out of reach of pets and children.
Care Tips:
Begonias prefer lightly moist soil and room-temperature water. Its beautiful leaves are water-sensitive, so water them from the bottom to avoid getting excess water on the leaves. These plants enjoy light shade but will also thrive in sunny locations.
