Begonia Maculata

Description

• Begonia Maculata is a popular shade plant due to its shiny, polka-dot leaves.
  
• The leaf shape has earned this plant the nickname 'Angel Wings'.
  
• The leaves are green white dots on the top side and reddish on the underside.
• This plant is listed as toxic to humans and pets if eaten.

Position & Care

• Begonia Maculata likes a humid and warm environment.
  
• A bright but shaded spot is essential. Begonias will not grow well in dark rooms.
• To help it along, mist every few days (this is not essential).
• Water regularly, though do not keep oversaturated or sitting in waterlogged potting mix.
• For a nice, large plant re-pot to a bigger pot every year and feed with a slow-release fertilizer throughout the growing season.
