Begonia baladin and caring for her

Begonia baladin fell in love with a huge number of indoor plant lovers, primarily due to its extremely attractive and spectacular appearance. This plant blooms with an incredible number of small bright flowers that merge into one red cloud and contrast with the bright green of the leaves.

Begonia baladin feels best in a moderate temperature regime: this plant does not tolerate the time when the thermometer rises above 20 degrees. As for, on the contrary, too low temperatures, they are also detrimental to the plant. So, in winter, the temperature in the room should not fall below fifteen degrees, and ideally it is within seventeen to eighteen degrees. For keeping begonias, you should select well-lit places (it is extremely important that at noon, when the sun is at its zenith and is hot too actively, the plant is protected from direct sunlight).

Begonia reacts poorly to both dry soil and sour soil: it should be watered abundantly enough, especially when it comes to spring and hot summer, but in no case should it be flooded. Tuberous plant varieties cannot be watered in winter; they must be stored in a dry peat substrate. And finally, another important condition for growing this plant is a suitable soil, which should consist of leafy, soddy and humus soil with the addition of a small amount of river sand and coniferous soil.
