Begonia Rex Mix

4"

🌿 Begonia Rex Mix

Rex begonias bring colour and texture indoors with beautifully patterned leaves in combinations of silver, green, pink, and burgundy. Each variety has its own markings, making these foliage plants a lovely addition to a bright shelf or side table.

☀️ Light Requirements

Prefers bright, indirect light. Place near an east-facing window or behind a sheer curtain that filters stronger sunlight. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the delicate leaves.

💧 Watering & Soil

Water when the soil surface begins to dry, keeping the mix lightly moist without becoming soggy. Let excess water drain and empty the saucer. Use an airy, well-draining houseplant mix. Water the soil rather than the leaves or centre of the plant, and check less frequently in winter as growth slows.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

Enjoys warm, stable indoor conditions and higher humidity. Keep away from cold drafts and heating vents. A nearby humidifier can help in dry rooms; avoid misting the leaves and allow gentle airflow around the plant.

🌱 Care Level

Moderate — needs a little attention to moisture and humidity. Consistent conditions help keep its colourful foliage looking its best.

🐾 Pet Safety — Toxic to Cats & Dogs

Toxic to cats and dogs if eaten. Begonias contain soluble calcium oxalates, which can cause vomiting and excessive drooling. Keep all parts, especially the roots, out of reach. Contact your veterinarian if your pet chews or ingests any part.

⚠️ Things to Watch For

• Yellowing leaves or soft stems may indicate overwatering or poor drainage.

• Crispy leaf edges can result from dry air, heat, or insufficient moisture.

• Pale or scorched patches may indicate too much direct sunlight.

• Check regularly for spider mites, aphids, and white powdery patches on leaves.
