Begonia ‘Hot Pink Spotty’ is a stunt hybrid, loved for its bright coloured foliage. The leaves are a  stunning tear drop shape with a texture edge and fine hairs. The leaves are a deep red in the centre and out edge with a vibrant green band joining the two. The whole leaf is splatter in silver markings that turn into a stunning, neon pink in warmer weather and when kept in bright light. The stems are bright red colour and are covered in small trichomes hairs giving it a fuzzy look. 

☀️These plants love partial shade outdoors or bright indirect light indoors.

💧Allow your begonias to mostly dry between waterings but not entirely. this will protect the plant from root or rhizome root. if you begin to see your leaves drooping this can be a sign that your plant is thirsty.

〰️This begonia is very happy at ambient humidity leaves however, if you start to notice brown, crisp looking marks on leaf edges are usually caused by the humidity being insufficient. 

🌡️This begonia variety is very happy to be growing at ambient temperatures between 20-35°C. Begonias are easily killed by hard freezes so its better to keep the protected if you live in an area that is affected by frost in cold weather. 

🍴Begonias do well with frequent fertilising with liquid fertiliser given at a weaker strength more frequently. Slow release granules can also be used in potting mix.

✂️Begonias rarely need trimming except to remove injured branches and old flower clusters. Propagation is typically done by rhizome or leaf cuttings but also can be done by seed.

🪴Give them well draining soil - adding about 20% to 30% perlite into your standard premium potting mix will do the trick.
