About Clubed Begonia
Begonia cucullata is a flowering species of Begonia that is popular for its brightly colored blossoms. The flowers may come in red, pink, or white and bloom throughout the year in warmer climates. This species is native to South America but is considered an invasive species in the southeast United States, causing disruption to local ecosystems. If you live in the southeast, it’s best to grow this species indoors to prevent seeds from taking root in the wild. 🪴

How to fertilize Clubed Begonia

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Clubed Begonia after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I always order my plants and sometimes planters from this one place and I love them! They always package everything so very nice, the plants are always so beautiful and healthy :) they recently have seemed “off” somehow with me though. I’m not sure why or how or what I’ve done. I just feel a bad vibe anymore when I do have to socialize with them. I recently ordered three begonias, I actually ordered it through Walmart and did not realize it was through this company until days after I placed the order, but this is what they sent me….. these two were the worst. Oh my gosh!???!? I know things happen BUUUT!!! I didn’t say anything and I actually ordered a small bit more. Beautiful plants. I hope they come okay. I mean… you can barely at all even tell what these are. I just wonder why they did that, it makes me sad and I just guess I’m venting, sharing. I mean that one piece looks like lettuce to me and Greg here said so also. Hahah, #sunday #GregGang #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #lovemyplants
