Begonia 130mm

With colourful, patterned leaves and plenty of personality, a Begonia is a lovely way to add detail to a shelf or tabletop. Each variety has its own character, making it especially tempting for plant collectors.

Care: Place in bright, filtered light, away from harsh midday sun. Use a loose, well-draining potting mix and allow good airflow around the leaves.

Watering: Water thoroughly when the top of the mix feels dry, then let the pot drain. Avoid letting the soil become completely dry or stay soggy.

Fun fact: Begonias are an enormous plant group, with more than 2,000 species and thousands of hybrids.
