Eyelash Begonia holes in leaves
Comments (6)I know what you mean about holes from pine needles especially on the thin leaved ones like 'Sinbad', 'Maurice Amey', and 'Benigo'. I have had a lot of damage from small catepillars on some of the hairy leaved ones like 'Art Hodes' and 'Boomer'. Also if fallen leaves from trees are allowed to sit on top of begonia leaves such as rexes, then holes may develop as well (is this from microbes, dry rot, lack of light, or what). Water left on begonia leaves can cause damage if left in intense sun. It can also lead to fungus problems when the temps are cool. Mine are outside and getting holes. (That doesn't sound very nice but what the heck)....See MoreIndoor Begonia dropping buds

Comments (6)Cuttings, yes, that’s what they must be: though how they can make such vigorous plants is beyond me. The cuttings I tried to make from the fallen-off stems rotted. Must have been compromised. Unpotting and leaving the other 2 begonias’ rootballs to dry out seems to have stopped the decline. One had already dropped half its stems, the others look ok. The soil-less mix is now bone-dry. I put them back in their pots today and gave them a dribble of water. I should take any remaining flower buds off. I have often bought ready made up hanging baskets with begonias. In the fall the stems drop off normally and I bring them inside, then I can tell there is a very small tuber there. I store in the basement and a few weeks ago brought them up and outside; now I can see tiny begonia sprouts. I don’t expect much from those, it’s more of an experiment than anything else....See MoreHelp with Begonia Maculata dropping unfurled leaves
Comments (1)Hi! My begonia plant has been pushing out new leaves in the past month, the last 4 leaves did not unfurl since the stem that held the leaf got detached from the main stem.Thia has happened 4 times now over the last mont. I'm not sure what is causing. Hoping someone can help or have encouraged this before?Added pictures in the comment section.Thanks,Joie...See Moreele0101
