I've covered begonia propagation here before with Steve's Leaves (Ep. 039. - • BEGONIA PROPAGATION - ... ), but I always like to see how other people in other parts of the world are propagating the same plants, because as we'll find out from Sandy-it might be done slightly differently given the different climate conditions.
Be sure to tune back in here because we have one more propagation video coming up in this week's Propagation Week series!

Once I got over the "begonias are your grandparents plants" mindset I found them to be a joy to grow! My technique is very similar to Sandy's except I use a domed container since I'm not right above the equator. I use the plastic domed containers they put rotisserie chickens in at the market. Be nice to your deli/supermarket workers plant people and they'll be more than happy to give you some. They're great friends for a plant person to have!

@summerrayneoakes 5 лет назад

Love that you use rotisserie containers. I've seen salad containers use at botanic gardens!

@petercardona1559 5 лет назад

@@summerrayneoakes salad containers are perfect for transitioning water propagations of your favorite genera to soil. I haven't lost a pep fraseri yet and I'm doing what I can to keep plastic out of the Earth. 🌎👍

@stefpix 5 лет назад

@@petercardona1559 I am wondering if plastic containers are going to be phased out, what will be possible to use. Maybe buy specific ones for the purpose, reusable domes. Clear plastic shoeboxes are something that can also be used (an I use clear large plastic containers for when I travel 2 weeks to keep plants from drying out while I am away)

@petercardona1559 5 лет назад

@@stefpix that would be a drag if they do get phased out. I used to use a big clear 30 gallon storage bin with trays & fiber pots in them as a propagation station so I probably revert to that.

@stefpix 5 лет назад

@@petercardona1559 I think it would be for the better good to ban plastic single use containers that are a plague in the USA. Just the coffee lids / iced coffee containers, styrofoam cups, salad container impact the environment for 100s of years for a single 5 minute use. Chicken could be sold in a foil or paper container. I am trying to minimize / avoid as much as I can. Recycling is not the answer as plastic can be recycled only a few times, and in NYC often recycling ends up in the regular trash. Plastic use and increasing population are an environmental disaster. Plastic litter desert beaches from NYC to the Caribbean , and microplastics float in the ocean. Time to be responsible.

I purchased my 1st begonia on a trip in Tampa, FL a few weeks ago and I knew absolutely nothing about them until watching your earlier video w/ Steve of Steve's Leaves and now this one w/ Sandy Soh .

@AdriCr4ft 4 года назад

Does this work with the maculata? :) I can’t seem to get a cutting to propagate I don’t understand why :( I cut under the node leaving a bit of stem and it also had 3 leaves on it. Second day in water and the stalks on one of the leaves looked sad and next day was mushy so I cut it off, then the rest of the cutting started happening the same. I still have it in water to see if anything will happen as it had one small shoot coming and it still looks OK. I been unlucky with these :/

This plant is so interesting and easy to propagate. I would love to hear more about this begonia. Is Sandy have a channel too? I'm loving this propagating series of yours Summer 💕 this past few weeks I'm getting this urge to love more different kinds of plants it's just they always die. That's why I stopped buying and having them in my home. But lately we just move to a new home and I think our water here is much better and the sunlight too. I'm starting to buy some few plants and they're still alive maybe it's the water or sunlight or maybe I'm just more curious lately of my plants and searching on how to take care of them properly.

Thanks for this video Summer.So after fixing the leaf part and petiole in the potting mix don't we need to water/mist it?

@curiositygarden 5 лет назад

Vidya Sam a plastic bag to trap in humidity would be more beneficial than misting. You don’t want the soil too wet, but definitely want condensation to form on the bag. Open every few days to prevent stagnant air from molding your cuttings!

They specialize in Begonias. I just happened on your channel today so I don't know if you have mentioned them or gone to the greenhouse. Check them out you won't be disappointed!

hi. i have a weird luck with purchased plants, specially with the ones that i purchase online. Most of them came naked root and 2 out of 5 have survive, and they havent been what a want it to be, so what's your recomendation to help naked root plants?.

@sandysoh1742 5 лет назад

I receive my plants from overseas always bare root. First thing to do would be to remove any rotten roots or leaves of the plant. Try potting them up in long fiber sphagnum moss. After they take root, you can transfer to any other media that you want or just leave them in the sphagnum.
