Agronomin neuvot
Planting. Repot in spring into a pot 1–2 cm wider, using light, open compost over a drainage layer. Rex begonias prefer wide, shallow pots.
Watering and feeding. Water moderately once the top 1–2 cm of compost is dry and never leave water standing in the saucer. From spring to autumn feed every 2–3 weeks with a foliage houseplant fertiliser.
Care. Keep in a bright place out of direct sun and away from radiators. The plant likes humid air, but do not mist the leaves — stand the pot on a tray of damp pebbles instead. Remove old leaves.
Gardener's tip. Turn the pot once a week for even growth and water less in winter — this keeps the leaves of begonia 'Conga' bright and healthy.
