Begonia Double Lady Francis Pink Care Guide
Light and Water
* Light: Bright, indirect light (east-facing windows or dappled shade). Avoid direct sun to prevent leaf scorch.
* Water: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water when the top 1 inch of soil dries. Reduce watering during dormancy (winter).
Soil and Fertilizing
* Soil: Use a well-draining, peat-based mix with perlite or compost.
* Fertilizer: Feed every 2-3 weeks with a balanced liquid fertilizer (10-10-10) during the growing season (spring to fall).
Temperature and Humidity
* Temperature: 65-75°F (18-24°C). Protect from frost and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
* Humidity: Prefers 50-60% humidity. Avoid misting flowers to prevent rot.
Pruning, Propagating, and Repotting
* Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to encourage new flowers. Trim leggy stems for bushier growth.
* Propagating: Divide tubers in early spring or take stem cuttings.
* Repotting: Report annually after dormancy into a container 1-2 inches larger.
Common Problems
* Powdery mildew: Improve airflow and avoid overhead watering.
* Root rot: Caused by overwatering. Ensure pots have drainage holes.
* Aphids or spider mites: Treat with neem oil or insecticidal soap.
* Bud drop: Due to sudden temperature shifts or inconsistent watering.
Begonia Double Lady Francis Pink: Best Locations & Uses
