so this is the second begonia I’ve owned being I could not keep my first alive whatsoever, I read last night that showering your begonia may help with growth in drier climates, I just want to keep my baby alive!!! Any pointers? To be fair, my last Rex died pretty much on the way home, I’ve had this one for a few days now and seems to be better???? I’d like to keep it that way!!!

Hi :) I have a Rex Begonia that is having some trouble. He frequently droops and gets very soft. Anyone know why this may be happening??

Hi all- my begonia maculata I very asymmetric. It has been growing a lot through the summer but just last week began to drop leaves. Is this normal for the fall? Is it normal to have such sidedness to these?

My begonia feels very cluttered. I also see the “Angel wings” but they don’t grow in pairs it seems (I thought they were supposed to). Does anyone know if I’m supposed to prune this a specific way or something?

Does anyone know what type of begonia this one is? It’s a propagation that was gifted to me.

This is my first begonia - any tips for this little guy? I have him in an east facing window with a few other friends. I live in Florida so Im not too worried about it getting cold in the window sill during what everywhere else calls ‘winter’

This is Agnes 🫶🏾 my Linda Dawn Begonia. I got her from a neighbor who’s moving and couldn’t take her. She was freshly fertilized when I got her but I recently noticed some brown edges on her leaves. I’ve bottom watered her 1x since getting her 3 weeks ago.
