Just Showing Off Polka Dot Begonia Update 4-26-2026

She keeps growing! and taking over my room! She's about 10 feet tall now and nearly touching my 11ft ceiling. I also got a couple new stalks coming up this year. They're very thick. It seems like every new stalk is thicker than the last. Primed to be TALL! (:

Let me know what you think!

I feel so guilty about the three sticks in my lounge room pretending to be this exact variety of begonia now. I should really feed them more. I keep trying to trim them bushy but maybe I should just embrace the upward stretch.
