hello everyone !! i got a rex begonia plant last week and it looked really good in the store. i added more soil to it because it got a bit disturbed, watered it, and then i was super busy for a little and forgot to water it for a bit, so then its leaves were really droopy and it didn't look the best. i watered it yesterday and it sits on my windowsill. its leaves are slightly better but im worried about the ones that are still drooping—will they pop back up after a little bit more time? this is my first one of this plant so any tips are super duper helpful!!

    My Rex Begonias are really finicky!! I replanted one and it went into shock and died!! They do not like too much water 💦 either!!

      I don’t think you did!! She just looks a little in shock!! Just in the future when you water her remember less is better, I give my surviving one a little water over three days just to be on the cautious side. She’ll be fine, keep her warm and give her light!!

    Also if mine gets like that I give her some support with the green Velcro stuff or if you don’t have that lightly support her with bread ties.
