FAQ

Begonias come in various types, including fibrous-rooted Begonias, tuberous Begonias, rhizomatous Begonias, and cane-like (angel-wing) Begonias. Each type has different growth habits, foliage characteristics, and flower forms.

Begonias prefer moist but well-draining soil. Water them thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. The frequency of watering may vary depending on factors such as temperature, humidity, and the specific Begonia type. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.

Yes, many Begonias can be grown indoors as houseplants. They prefer bright, indirect light and moderate humidity levels. Choose Begonia varieties that are suitable for indoor conditions and place them near a window with filtered sunlight.

Begonias benefit from regular fertilization during the growing season. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer formulated for flowering houseplants. Follow the package instructions for dilution and frequency. Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can cause salt build-up and damage the plants.

Begonias can be propagated through various methods, including leaf cuttings, stem cuttings, division, and by collecting and planting seeds. Leaf and stem cuttings are the most common methods. Follow proper procedures for each method, ensuring the use of healthy plant material and suitable growing conditions.

Dropping leaves or a decline in flowering can be caused by factors such as insufficient light, overwatering, low humidity, or nutrient deficiencies. Assess the growing conditions and make adjustments as needed. Provide adequate light, proper watering, humidity levels, and ensure proper fertilization.

While some Begonias can tolerate full sun, most Begonias prefer bright, indirect light or partial shade. Intense, direct sunlight can scorch the leaves and cause damage. It's important to understand the light requirements of the specific Begonia type you have and provide suitable conditions accordingly.

Begonias can be susceptible to pests like mealybugs, aphids, spider mites, and diseases like powdery mildew or root rot. Regularly inspect your Begonias for any signs of infestation or disease. Proper care, good air circulation, and maintaining appropriate moisture levels can help prevent and manage these issues.

Repot Begonias when they outgrow their current containers or when the soil becomes compacted. The best time to repot is during the active growing season, typically in spring or early summer. Choose a pot that allows for future growth, use fresh potting soil, and ensure proper drainage.

Some Begonias, such as tuberous Begonias, are more sensitive to cold temperatures and are typically grown as annuals in colder climates. However, there are hardy Begonia species, like Begonia grandis, that can tolerate cooler temperatures and may even be perennial in certain regions. Remember that specific care requirements may vary among Begonia varieties, so it's helpful to research the specific needs of the Begonia type you have. Monitoring your plants closely and adjusting care accordingly will help keep your Begonias healthy and thriving.

Better than I'd hoped
I wanted two fairly rare plants. Prefer to choose my own of course, but no one had them. Jungle Collective did, online, so despite mixed reviews I ordered them, to pick up from a pop-up pick-up place. Well, the pop-up was cancelled and I couldn't reach anyone to see what was happening. Understandable - this IS a small business, not Flower Power. But they said they'd be in touch so I waited and they were, and the next day the plants were delivered, beautiful and in perfect condition! (I didn't request or pay for delivery.) And when I say the plants are beautiful - I mean beautiful. They're larger than I hoped, well established, healthy and full of leaves, and one has three plants in the pot. They're putting out new leaves already, 3 weeks later. So, excellent plants, very good prices and considerate service. Based on my experience I recommend Jungle Collective without reservation.
