# Does anyone know why my rexbegonia is getting these weird brown and…

_Posted by KT :) on 2026-09-04_

Does anyone know why my rexbegonia is getting these weird brown and white spots on its leaves? It recently flowered so I thinks it's like half healthy or something, but it seems to be getting worse and there's a lot of those little fruit fly looking guys around. I brought them to my dorm and I'm debating if I should just bring them home instead. Any advice 😢?

That looks like water sat on the leaves too long and caused either damage or fungus. I would use a fungicide to save what’s still healthy and prevent the spread.
