My begonia does great and then for no reason the leaves start drying out and fall off then it starts new leaves. Any suggestions?

Is it in direct sun? Maybe the leaves are getting scorched. It should be indirect bright light. Are you overwatering? I’ve done that and had a lot of leaves fall off, even young ones. But in that case I had no browning edges like yours do.

Also begonias love humidity so I’d recommend getting a humidifier, and I saw someone on here say that they use distilled water or api drop water on their begonias and they flourish

It's not in direct sun and I wait till it is dry before I water but maybe it's not getting enough humidity. I will try that and see what happens. Thanks

Maybe make sure to mist it often between waterings. Like someone else said I use distilled water the majority of the time.

Ok I will try that. I mist it about twice a week but maybe I don't do enough cause it is a big plant. Thanks

Most likely a humidity issue. Happens with mine at times also. Misting unfortunately does nothing for humidity. Invest in a humidifier and you’ll see a huge improvement.

I just ordered one off Amazon. Thanks
