    👋 Begonias like high humidity and misting - do you have a humidifier near it?

      I just purchased one this morning and a mister!

    Also, begonias are sensitive to tap water - I recommend distilled water, reverse osmosis, or if you collect rain water. 🪴

    Yes to high humidity for begonias!! I would recommend only using a humidifier as misting the leaves can lead to a fungal infection due to the water droplets from a mister being too big and sitting on the leaves for too long!

      Totally agree with this. Misting just gives the plant owner the feeling of doing something great for the plant. But it pretty much accomplishes nothing.
