Begonia hirtella
2000
Begonias are robust plants; they come in many sizes, colours and leaf shapes, and bear flowers for many months.
Care Specks:
 |
These plants love partial shade outdoors or bright indirect light indoors |
 |
Allow it to mostly dry between waterings but not entirely |
 |
Give them well draining soil - adding about 20% to 30% perlite into your standard premium potting mix will do the trick. |
|
|
These guys are tropical/sub-tropical so prefer high humidity - dark brown, crisp looking marks on leaf edges are usually caused by low humidity. |
 |
Begonias rarely need trimming except to remove injured branches and old flower clusters. |
 |
Toxic to pets! |
|
|
These plants are moderately frost tolerant but begonias are easily killed by hard freezes. |

Each living plant is unique and may vary slightly in size, colour or shape.
