My rex begonia is a little droopy after being in a car for about 6 hours. We were driving from NC to VA. I watered, because she needed it. But i was wondering if there were any tips to perk her up some

    Just give her a little time to recover and make sure she has enough moisture to plump back up. I’d drench her and then I’d set her on a pile of folded paper towels to draw out all the excess water, and then just leave her alone for a few days with adequate light and a little humidity. She’ll be back to her old self in no time!! She’s very cute.

      Thank you so much! And her name is Alora :)

    I love begonias because whenever I accidentally forget about one and it looks like it died, I just trim it back and water it and it comes right back again, even prettier and fuller than it was before. So don’t worry!!!

      I’ve never had begonias before, i just got two, so I’m very new to them!

    I just thought of something. If you're in a humid area, like 60% or more, you should think about getting a beginia maculata. I love mine do much and i have a humidifier for her just so i can keep her plump and healthy. Every once in awhile I cut her back and she comes back twice as big!!
