Thank u! She sits under a 35 W LED grow light for 12 hours each day. They need humidity but they’re not fussy about it.

Absolutely gorgeous! I’d love to add one to my plant collection

Do it!

Is this the same plant? Is polkadot begonia just a common generic name? I've never heard "black Forrest" as a variegation.

Yes. It’s the same plant. Bold Belles is just another name for the Black Forest variety.
