HELP! I got this Cracklin’ Rosie last fall and she is still ALIVE! Small miracle as I’ve had trouble with Begonia’s in the past. Why aren’t her leaves opening all the way up? Humidity? I have a humidifier that lives in this plant corner. She was pushed to the back and now I’ve moved her forward. I let her dry out to about 1.8 on my digital reader. Then water thru. Under a soltech grow light which is on 12 hrs per day - about to kick that up as we pass spring equinox. Help begonia professionals! ☺️

    Hmm it kind of reminds me of what some leaves do when they fold up because of too much light

      I could move her further away from the grow light or shade her from foliage of another. I’m nervous to move her around too much because she hasn’t dropped ANY leaves since I moved her to this spot in late fall.
