Just added this beautiful Pink Urchin begonia to my leafy family. 😍 She’s a cross of two begonias that are native to Indonesia, so I named her “Kirana,” which – according to Google translator 😆 – means “beautiful” in Indonesian.

Side note: if you speak Indonesian and I’m completely wrong, let me know! Lol

So beautiful! How do you keep these begonias’ stems solid? Mine seem to shrivel up and I slowly loose them.

Thanks! ☺️ This particular seller provided care instructions with the exact conditions they grow their plants in – temps and humidity. When a seller does that, I do my best to match those conditions, but in general with these delicate types of begonias, I’ve found that high humidity is usually the biggest factor and never letting the soil go completely dry. ☺️

Adorable!!! Looks like a baby, how big can she get!?

#### abitofbrit replied on 2026-06-04

Funny enough, this one is pretty much full grown! 😆 They don’t get big at all - between 2 to 4”.

What a great find! And it won’t overgrow and take over your 100+ plant jungle!😋😜
