How not to kill your Polka Dot Begonia (Begonia maculata)
We've created a personalised Grow Guide for your Polka Dot Begonia (Begonia maculata). Just follow this easy guide and you & your new leafy mate will be loving life together!
Watering: Moderate
Check the compost before watering. Water when the upper layer begins to dry, then let excess water drain away. Adjust to the plant, pot, light and season.
Humidity: High
Keep away from drying radiators. Where this plant benefits from higher humidity, use a humidifier or suitable room conditions with ventilation. Routine misting is not a substitute for lasting humidity.
