Got these poor kids at Walmart! Was flooded out so I got both of these for $2 each. No clue what kind they are though! Any ideas? I feel like they are the same kind, just very poor health at the moment. It just says angel plant on the pot.

Could someone please help me figure out what kind of begonia I am? Just a little baby! Got it from a cutting from someone and they were not sure either.

Hi. I’m wondering if someone can help me figure out how to better support my polka dot begonia. It’s very happy, but very top-heavy. Right now I’m supporting it with metal stakes and Velcro ties but that doesn’t seem to be enough. I know I need to repot it too.

She’s just… not looking good. I bottom water her when the soil feels dry and she’s under a grow light with a humidifier in the room. Any tips??

My beautiful baby Ume🥹🥰 She’s my first & only Rex Begonia I’ve ever had! She is pretty new to me. I’ve only had her for just under 2 weeks. Her pot is a bit big for her & her soil is only filled half way up. (I jumped the gun & repotted her as soon as I brought her home before knowing better, oops.) I’m thinking after a few weeks, I’ll momentarily take her out of this pot to put more soil at the bottom, then put her back on top. She has been a bit droopy; less droopy than she was right after repotting, but still. She’s in an east-facing window & her leaves face the sun. I just turn her 180 for pictures & then turn her back after. With what I previously stated in mind about her pot, location relative to the sun & such, is this drooping normal? Is it something I’ll just have to deal with until I add more soil later? I strongly welcome any tips & suggestions! Thank you for reading! 🫶🏻

Anyone else water their begonias from the bottom when it is watering time? Is there any benefit to this or am I just weird?

Planta keeps saying polka dot… obviously I’m a bit sceptical. Can someone please tell me what kind of Rex this is so I can put a label in my plant collection? I see no spots and it is metallic silver with one metallic pink leaf

When I first got my begonia, I didn't think it was going to go too well. But look at this beauty growing! 😍

Planties! My friend just bought this begonia in Austin, and we were curious on what kind it is. Any ideas?
