I need Polka Dot Begonia help 🥲 I love this plant so much. I’ve been following care instructions to the best of my abilities but she still seems sad. I’ve had this plant for about 3-4 months now and I’ve not seen any growth, the tips of the leaves are struggling (which I see often in these plants) and she’s actually lost a leaf since I’ve had it. Does anyone have any wizard advice that they can share to help her thrive??
I mean the good news is that it has lots of beautiful nodes you can propagate with. Cause im calling for a chop! Something has been wrong with the plant for a while and its not bouncing back. Chop timee

Have you checked her roots? If you have t I would, I find a lot of plants from nurseries and box stores contain netting that traps roots and damages the little ones, I typically remove it and find my plants happier
2 likes Oh, interesting. I’m still a fairly new plant mom and was unaware that sometimes netting is used. Good to know. I did repot it about a week after I got it and there was no netting.
0 likes Good, here in the PWN I find it a lot, might just be I'm in a small town 😂 how is the lighting, sometimes plants will just be in dormancy for sometime after repotting and coming to a new home, I had a fiddle fig that just wouldn't grow till I moved her to a spot she liked😂
0 likes Omg 😂 finicky little things. She was getting indirect light but I moved it a little closer to the light yesterday so we’ll see if she likes that any better 🤞🏻 I have a few that I’m fighting for my life to keep alive haha
