@usere94a106d Those little babies are exactly what Strawberry Begonias are famous for they’re like the proud plant parent that sends their kids off on long, pink umbilical cords…. You’ve got two choices.. Leave them attached they’ll keep getting nutrients from the mother plant and look adorable trailing….. Pot them up snip a baby with a bit of stem, tuck it into moist soil, and keep it slightly shaded until it roots (usually 2–3 weeks)…. If you want a fuller plant in the same pot, you can even just pin the babies down onto the soil without cutting them they’ll root in place like they’re moving back into the family home.
@JungleDreamer interesting πŸ€”
@JungleDreamer wow! Thank you for the details. They are cute! I will let them trail for a bit and then decide.
