Begonia Maculata Wightii Angel Wings

Light Bright indirect light is best Avoid harsh direct afternoon sun — it can scorch the leaves Morning sun is usually okay Water Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry Keep soil lightly moist but never soggy Do not let the pot sit in water Humidity Loves medium to high humidity (50%+) Brown crispy edges usually mean air is too dry Avoid misting too much because begonias can get fungal issues Soil Use a chunky, airy mix: Potting soil Perlite Orchid bark or coco chips Good drainage is very important. Size: 45cm, comes in nursery pot Temperature Ideal: 18–28°C Keep away from cold AC drafts Fertilizer Feed once every 2–4 weeks during spring/summer Use balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength Common Problems Yellow leaves → overwatering Crispy edges → low humidity or underwatering Leggy stems → not enough light Powdery mildew → poor airflow / wet leaves Extra Tip These begonias prefer being slightly root-bound and actually do very well in stylish decorative pots as long as there’s drainage inside.
