Immense Begonia
About Immense Begonia
There are over 2,000 species of Begonia, and horticulturalists have created even more varities by cultivating all sorts of shapes and colors! They're native to tropical regions around the world, but are now found in homes in cold climates as well. Their taxonomy is far more complex than other plants, with species belonging to different cultivar groups. They contain oxalic acid, so be sure to keep them out of reach in homes with pets or children! ⚠️

Finding light for Immense Begonia in your home
Immense Begonia may have difficulty thriving, and will drop leaves 🍃, without ample sunlight.
Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.
Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Immense Begonia in your home 🏡.
How to fertilize Immense Begonia
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Immense Begonia after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Yellow leaves and new growth? #Begonia My angel wing begonia has yellow leaves on the bottom of its stalks (some have brown/dead tips) but is consistently putting out new growth. Is this an underwater issue, or something else? #AngelWingBegonia

PLANT NAME SUNDAY Help name my plant #helpmenamemyplant #seymour Hi Everyone, here's another rescue plant that needs a name It's a Begonia Bossa Nova Salmon Alfresco so I am imagining a Bossa Nova dancer 💃 out in the open area, maybe on or near a beach on an Alfresco area in a Salmon colored dress. To help with a name, here's a description of the Bossa Nova: "Bossa Nova was a soft samba based on traditional Brazilian music and rhythms, American jazz, and a new style of Portuguese lyrics. It was a youthful celebration of romance, beach culture, and sensual pleasure" So can you suggest a name that may lead me to a more perfect name? And if you have any tips or tricks to help rescue this Begonia, let me know #begonia #begoniabunch #seymour #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #plantaddict #happyplants #greggang #helpmenamemyplant

Here are 3 new next level begonias that I have acquired. I am hoping they thrive successfully in my care. Introducing: B.Melanobullata, B.Chlorosticta (PON) & B.U038. I have been researching PON use & I am looking forward to using it more. #pon #HappyPlants #PlantAddict #PlantsMakePeopleHappy

Angel Wing Begonia Repot I repotted my tiny baby angel wing begonia a couple days ago. I got it as a cutting in a miniature wine glass with leca and pebbles. It finally grew a new leaf and the roots looked feisty so I decided to upgrade to a year cotta pot with no hole set in a normal size wine glass filled with water. It was very root bound with all the leca. I could barely get it out! In theory with the new pot, the water will slowly seep through the terracotta at the right speed for my plant. We shall see! #AngelWingBegonia #Begonia #BegoniaBrigade #BegoniaBunch #selfwateringplanter #wineglassplanter #HappyPlants
