They love humidity and being hydrated! I personally have placed mine in my bathroom under a grow light (my bathroom has no windows for light). She was in my bedroom but she started to crisp up due to lack of humidity.

0 LikesI just got one too🤗 begonias like 50-70% humidity but polkas usually do okay with avg. Add a pebble tray if you dont have it in an enclosure or close to a humidifier. They like to be warm with bright indirect light to keep them vibrant
