Begonia Semiparietalis

Origin: Guangxi, China

Begonia semiparietalis is a beautiful and low-maintenance evergreen herbaceous plant with distinctive, ornamental leaves. Its unique leaf patterns make it an excellent addition to any plant collection, especially for those who appreciate begonias with intricate and decorative foliage. This plant is particularly intriguing as, in lower light conditions, the leaves can take on a bluish tint, adding an extra layer of beauty to its appearance.

Growing Conditions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions but will grow slower and take on a bluish hue due to reduced light.
• Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 18°C to 25°C (64°F to 77°F). It does not tolerate cold temperatures, so it should be kept in a warm environment, away from drafts and cold windows.
• Humidity: Prefers high humidity, making it ideal for terrariums or rooms with consistent moisture levels. A humidity level of 60% or higher is perfect for this plant.
• Watering: Water when the top layer of soil is dry to the touch. Be careful not to overwater, as begonias are prone to root rot. It is best to use a well-draining potting mix.
• Soil: A well-draining, acidic to neutral soil mix works best. A mixture of peat moss, perlite, and pine bark provides good drainage and moisture retention.
