Light
Your Begonia appreciates bright, indirect light. Avoid prolonged direct sun.
Water
Keep the soil a little damp. Good drainage is paramount.
Humidity
Your plant appreciates humidity, however avoid misting the leaves directly as begonia are susceptible to fungus.
Top Tip
Your begonia will need a simple stake for support as it begins to grow tall. Please note, the stake pictured is not included.
Seasonal
During warmer months, houseplants are actively growing and will appreciate regular plant food. During colder months, a plants growth rate slows down and so they often need less water.
