FAQ about Begonia – Pink

What kind of soil suits begonias best?
Begonias thrive in well-drained, fertile, humus-rich soil that stays evenly moist but not wet. A mix of garden compost and multi-purpose compost works well. Avoid heavy soil where water can stand, as this rots the roots and tubers.
How often should begonias be watered?
Water regularly but moderately, ideally in the morning so the leaves dry before evening. The compost should be evenly moist but never soggy, so let the top centimetre dry between waterings. Avoid watering over the leaves to reduce the risk of mildew.
Do begonias need pruning?
Begonias need no real pruning, but regular deadheading keeps them flowering. Pick off dead or damaged leaves and stems, and pinch back leggy shoots to encourage bushier growth.
Which pests and diseases can affect begonias?
The most common problems are aphids, thrips and powdery mildew, as well as grey mould and stem rot from overwatering. Ensure good air circulation, water at the base and remove affected leaves promptly.
How do I overwinter begonias?
Begonias are not frost-hardy. Tuberous begonias can be lifted after the first light frost, dried and stored in dry compost or sand in a cool, frost-free place, then potted up again in spring. Fibrous and indoor begonias can be kept as houseplants in a bright spot over winter.
