    I didn’t have any luck with begonias until I found out about self watering pots. Begonias are very thirsty. I always repot my plants as soon as I buy them.

    • @reallybigplant

    I'm not a huge begonia fan, but I love strawberry begonias! They're so cool, they have runners like strawberry plants and you can get them with pink variegation. I'm also not really a fan of begonia flowers, but strawberry begonias have a really fun little flower. Check them out!

    I was totally not a begonia person either but my partner loves them and keeps bringing home begonia cuttings from family, and I'm slowly becoming a convert-- they are super rewarding to grow.
    Also props for bravery!

    You are going to love begonias! The coolest thing about them imo is that you can propagate just from a LEAF (no node necessary) and you can also propagate from the rhizome--just cut off a chunk of it and put it in wet moss or perlite (or even just soil). One tip: the leaves are super sensitive and don't like to get wet or too much sun. HOWEVER if a leaf gets damaged, if you chop a stem back it will pop out new growth. Baby begonia leaves are SO cute! Also I am terrified of earwigs, your actions were 1000% correct!

    I love begonias! I love the blooms too they have a sparkle too them ✨ I got a pink spot begonia at a plant shop and I love it also have a few different others. I definitely recommend begonia melanobullata it’s not purple but it looks so cool! It gives off goth plant for sure, and the begonia purple curl is another and it has some purple 🌱💜

    Can you use systemics? I always put granular systemics in my plants. I hate earwigs!! Put your plant in a ziploc baggie so he doesn’t get loose in your other plants. I have 2 begonias and they do not like to dry out at all. I have a Rex and a maculato (angel wing). I water those more often than my philodendrons. When top 1” dries out water and you have a good drainage soil. We didn’t notice your hair we were freaked out by that running bug. Ohhhwww

    I‘m by no means a begonia expert and it’s pretty difficult to ID the many begonia rex hybrids, but if i had to guess I would say the first red begonia was Begonia Red Kiss and the ginger chunk could be Begonia Red Bull. Pretty sure the dark one is a Begonia Black Fang or Mamba. 🤔
    Damn! That gigantic Hoya Macrophylla Albomarginata is a dream for 20 Bucks … with a pot!

    That red rex Begonia looked like a Begonia rex 'Red Robin'. With the begonias I have, I felt they became thirsty fast because they were quick to expansive root growth. I had to repot several I had for half a year into larger pots because their root systems would outgrow the pots. Mine would have bigger root systems than leaves. If you don't or unable to water that frequently, you can use self-watering planters/pots.... but it doesn't solve the expansive root growth. 😅
    Happy Holidays!

    Love your videos. Earwigs are called that because they do get in your ear. When I was a kid got one in my ear whist playing in my yard with our new puppy. I kept complaining of a headache and loud noises in my head. Mom took me to the doc and said yes something is in my ear poured warm oil in my ear and used a suction thingy and behold an earwig and eggs! I was about 4 and remember it like it happened yesterday. If I was you I would do another hydrogen peroxide treatment again. Just to be safe. Love your tree. My experience with begonias is humidity is important. I keep mine in a plastic container for the winter and outside in the summer. They are easy to multiply by water or leaf cutting or perlite in prop box. Wishing you a very Merry Christmas

      This story is the last thing someone with a bug phobia wants to hear! She’s not going to get bugs in her ears if she doesn’t treat the plant again with peroxide. Just wanted to leave this comment in case she sees this, coming from someone who overcame a debilitating bug phobia haha

    What is that red and black begonia at 23:35? I have it but since stores just have a name tag "begonia" or "begonia rex" I'm not satisfied with that accuracy. It's so beautiful with the glittery leaves. Begonias are so awesome because they grow and propagate so easily and there's huge variety in what comes to shapes and colours! I haven't bought the ones that require most humidity because I don't have ikea cabinets or humidity domes...but those look the fanciest and somehow unearthly😍 I have troubles at keeping my room humidity over 50% during winter because even that requires daily filling of humidifiers and if I'm travelling it falls below 30%😵

    oh, I feel that bug things so much. I'm generally okay until they touch me and then I'm just done.
    A number of years ago, I had a cat that was batting something around in the kitchen and I bent down (in the dark) to pick it up thinking it was just something he had snagged he wasn't supposed to have...it was a June bug nearly the size of my hand. I screamed "I touched it!" over and over again for like 15 minutes, something that my partner has never let me live down.
