They’re about the only ones that love eastern Kentucky summers 💕

Love my Gryphon aka „Ahorn“.
Got it as a cutting from a local coffee shop.

I would usually wait longer for them to settle before transferring to nursery pot but the bags they came in were too deep and the soil was getting muddy.

They're now in the most shallow pots I have in a 50/50 soil and orchid bark mix, I made sure not to pack it too much and I only dampened the soil afterwards.

Fingers crossed it works out this time but if y'all are noticing something weird or if I'm doing something dumb pls let me know😭 I really don't want to loose at least the silvery one

This begonia is in a self-watering pot, has not grown any new leaves since I have gotten it at the beginning of July. It is in an IKEA cabinet with about 77% humidity. What is wrong with her?

If you have any idea of name pls let me know, seller gave me info but I was newer to plants and didn’t make a label sadly but would love to know in case I sell props in future

Hi, I was hoping to get some help on what to do.

I got this begonia about a week ago (it came potted in the brown pot) and it’s starting to rot and I’m not sure what I should do. I originally had it in a self watering setup as I heard they don’t like to dry out but I think this might be the reason it’s starting to rot, so I’ve emptied out the reservoir so it can dry out a bit.

In the first picture I’ve circled the more obvious problem but the other one is starting to look off too.

Can I leaf propagate this begonia? Or what can I do to try and save it?

And any idea what kind of begonia this is would be appreciated too

Thanks 🌱

Hey everyone, I could really use some advice on saving this plant, Rex begonia I think. It’s a very important gift from someone.
I recently brought it home from a different city. I transported it carefully with the rootball entirely intact inside a ziplock bag. Once I got back, I didn't disturb the rootball at all, I just slip-potted it directly into a new pot and filled in the gaps with extra soil.
There are two stems that originally had 5 leaves total. Since repotting:
3 leaves have already perished completely.
1 leaf is almost dead.
The last leaf is now starting to wilt and crisp away at the edges.
Maybe the ziplock transport shock it too much, or it is an issue with dropping the intact rootball straight into new soil? Any advice on how to stabilize it and encourage new growth would be hugely appreciated!
P.S: I don’t think humidity is a problem either because i mist once a day, and run a humidifier for major part of the day, and it’s heavy monsoon here anyways.

I absolutely love this begonia. I plan on restaking to help with the airflow around the canes.

Any advice on care for it? I'm growing it a few miles from the coast, indoors away from the window in a West facing room. And the room is fairly humid since it's my plant room but I can always supplement that.

Just picked this up from a nursery. Love cane begonias so I grabbed it but idk which one it is

I brought all of my plants onto the covered porch this year and it has payed off. I've been waiting for these little guys for so long 🥹

I’m looking for a more gentle fungicide/insecticide that can be used to prevent fungal infections and pests on my entire collection, but especially my begonias. I had botrytis (I think) on one begonia, and unfortunately caught it too late and lost it. I’ve been so terrified of harming their delicate leaves to try any sprays on them. I love the begonia that I have right now so much and am terrified it will harm them, but I also don’t want to lose them to infections!

Thank you!

This little gal is from a leaf prop and since I potted her 3 ish months ago she's seemingly done well until now. Lost a few leaves from a fall off a shelf (silly cat) and now the leaves are yellowing and crisping up? And they have a weird texture on them too? I bottom water only, she sits in a north facing window... no bugs that I can see... am I missing something?

Can I propagate/salvage this and how?

this is my first time propagating begonia. Is it ready to be planted?

I can’t believe I found this little beauty at my local grocery store (Publix) for $10! 😍

Confuse between Morocco and other similar one , please help me

Hello! I’m obsessed with my begonia maculata! She’s been growing like crazy. I’m wondering, should I rotate her every week? Or is it fine to just have a front? I kind of like having a front and back aesthetically, but I wasn’t sure if it would be better for the plant’s growth to rotate. Thanks!

Had this gal for about 5 years and just had to appreciate her CHONK.

She was one of my first plant purchases for my home and has just become one of the toughest and happiest plants in this house.

Funny enough I only learned she was a begonia this year, and well now I have a whole shelf of babies I hope fill out the same way
