I have just started getting into plants this last year after the loss of my cat. I have found growing and caring for plants as a way to cope with the loss and has given me a new hobby. I have really gotten into collection Begonias as they have such a wide range of beauty. They are all unique and just love watching them grow flowers and spring out new leaves. Thanks for your videos I really enjoy watching them.
I have one that only has one leaf 😢 and I still want all of them. They all are so beautiful, and I love how you talk about your plants the same way I love my plants but has no one to talk to about them. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow! You soon to be ready to call begonia queen mom , what collection you got there . I’m am so delighted to see and know all the names . Thank you for sharing .
I love your begonias. I just got steve's leaves, Pink Minx, Pink Flamingo, pink Diamond and Looking Glass. Steve's leaves, Gryphon,, Theimei and Dotsy. ❤🌷
I know I'm a begonia addict now because I bought 3 new additions in the past week for a total of 10. Just welcomed an escargot into my home and I think it's about to flower! My favorite is the maculata. Also I realized that I watched this video before but kept watching for the foliage lol. :D
Beautiful!! I’m surprised you’re not tending a beef steak begonia. They’re hard to find. People usually inherit cuttings from a lucky person who has one. I have some mold on my beef steak begonia soil and I’m freaking out! I love all your amazing plants 🌱 Thank you for sharing:))
Can you believe out of all of those begonias that I don’t have a whitii yet?!?🤣😂 It’s so weird I haven’t seen one in my area at all!! 😱🤓 I guess I Haven’t ordered one because I’ve seen how poorly they mail😕 I know they bounce back really quickly, but it’s hard for me to deal with the bummer out of the box😂🤣💚
@@HeartShapedLeaves mine came in great shape but I have seen the horror stories! I do think they will be easier to get in a couple months so keep being patient!
I’m totally impressed blown away wow you should be called the begonia lady very nice collection everything was beautiful I wish I could grow them that well I love begonias they are one of my favorite plants you really have a talent growing them do you grow most of them under lights ?thank you for sharing
Begonias are one of my favorite favorite favorite plants. I love angel wing or cane begonias more so than Rex Rex are beautiful but harder to care for. You must have the Rex begonia care down pat yours are beautiful beautiful beautiful! I think I found a new plant friend someone who loves begonias just as much as I do I think they're one of the most neglected plants species out there everybody's out after the rare plants and I'm just as bad as everybody else but if you want somebody to really love you back with beautiful flowers especially the ones that have the grape like cluster of flowers begonias are the one thanks for a great video
OMG me toooo Kathleen!!🙌🙌💚 I am always on the lookout for more RARE begonias to add to my collection!!✊⭐️💚 I seem to be good with them and thats my favorite part about them!! Thank you so much for watching Kathleen!!🤜🤛🌿
I know that this is an older video but, if you ever need help identifying, try Steves Leaves. He has a huge collection of begonias, and they are his speciality. He creates his own hybrids as well. Chartreuse is a yellow green
Amazing they are so beautiful!! Wish I could grow them. Green Streak, Griffin, Gun Metal, Sinbad, Escargot, Waterfall, Silver Streak, an Un- named 13 😲 Beyond beautiful!! Awesome Collection. Lol “Your Moma has a favorite, she just don’t tell ya.”
I know this is kinda old but I'm watching Begonia videos today because I just ordered a "harmony's Firecracker" , IDK much about it yet, until it gets here and I can inspect it. I think it's the cane variety maybe idk?? anyway thank you for sharing your begonia 411.I'm super duper excited!!
Ok. You are now my new best friend, you just don't know it yet🤣 Woman! I'm green with envy. I have to grow begonias like cut flowers ie love em til they wither and die a painful death. So, I'll just stalk your gorgeous collection and try not to be a bitter Betty over here in the corner 😁 Thanks for sharing such gorgeous begonias 💜 I'll come wash those dishes while we drink and admire your collection too😉
Your begonia's are absolutely beautiful. I am impressed. I live in the desert so I can't even consider begonias and ferns so I have to live vicariously through you. Maybe you could show us your fern collection next? Now cactus I got down but not much else due to excess heat and lack of humidity. I loved #10 un-named begonia with the silver veined leaves and the pale pink blooms. Thanks for giving us all some begonia inspiration.
Thank you so much Tori!!🌿🤓⭐️ You are too kind!!🤣😂 I can kill a succulent/cactus in a HOT MINUITE!!🤣😱🌿 Im currently trying not to kill the cacti that I have with all my humidity!!😵😷 Thanks for hanging out!!🤓👍💚
I think begonia #10 is a B. ‘Frosty’? Not sure but I’ve watched your begonia videos a million times over again because you’re my favorite begonia lady 😊 I hope to be like you someday! 😂
Hey there! I thought that since you do such an amazing job with your Begonias that I'd suggest a couple for you to check out. They're kind of like the David and Goliath version...lol. A friend's mother gifted me with a Beefsteak Begonia which has been a dream to grow. And I recently ordered the cutest Little Darling Begonia which is giving me fits! I want to see it do well because it IS so cute, but it being more of a Little Bastard than a Darling...😇...really enjoyed this video and seeing how well they are all doing. Thank you!
I'm a frequent viewer and for some reason this video popped up in my feed. I just watched and would love to see a "where are they now" video on the begonias you featured in this video. You rock! :)
I will definitely put it on my to do list!!👀👀💚 Sorry that your babies are struggling!!🙊 GOOD Light, terracotta, small container, water meter, and let them get dry inbetween. Humidity varies upon variery!! Good luck buttercup!!🌞🌞🌞🙏🌿💚
Thank you so much Shiree!!🤓💚🌿 I think there are a BAGILLION species of begonia!!🤩🤩 Makes them extra fun to collect......if you have ...the .....space....😱😱🤓💚 I need a greenhouse....🤓💚🌼
I love begonia. Your begonia collection is absolutely beautiful👏.Please share your advice on growing begonia rex group and how you encourage them to flower. Thank you so much❣
Suzanne Alden some don’t need humidity, some need a lot, some have to be in a terrarium. You have to research each one. Same with watering, it depends. But for most house plant types, I wait until they’re totally dry then I bottom water.
Holy crap I just bought the first begonia you showed today at Lowe's (apparently its part of their trending Tropicals collection). Unfortunately they didn't give it a name on the label. Its still absolutely gorgeous though!🥰
Absolutely stunning!!! I love begonias. I just started collecting a few. My recent begonia was hard to find it’s a Begonia Maculata Wightii’. I also have My special Angel wing begonia. It’s easy to keep collecting them ,but I’m running out of room with all my philodendron,Calathea and just to name a few. Lol loving your videos 🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿 Oh and I’m also waiting on a pink princess philodendron. lol it just doesn’t stop lol
I like begonia and have 3 pots , they are 3 weeks old but now withering and I do not know what’s wrong . I place them outside my flat, no direct sunlight but windy . Is it becos they must be kept indoors? Appreciate your advise
i just bought a begonia and mine didn't look like it was in this video. The tops of the leaves are green back is purple and it has huge yellow stalks...........what the hell kind is it???
What humidity level are they okay with? Do you have to use distilled water or is tap water okay (I have pretty hard water)? And lastly, do they need high light levels?
I am OK with 40+ percent humidity💯 I use tapwater on the majority of my begonias but I don’t know if my tapwater is soft or hard😬 I find that all my begonias need a considerable amount of light💯 I give my terrarium begonias distilled water
23:15 if you ever decide to part with this begonia I am interested🙂 or you decide to propagate it. All your begonias are the bomb! Xx growing stitches from ig
What’s up GIRL!!🤓💚🌿 I know RIGHT?!?! 😱😱🤓💚I LOVE that begonia.....and I have definitly been thinking about propagating it!! 😉🤓💚 Im about to make my first sale ever on EBAY!! (only for overflow stuff from the house!!)🤓💚 Maybe a cutting will make it there EVENTUALLY....LOL...😆🤣😂💚🌿. Thanks for hanging out girl!!🙌🌿🤓
How do you water them? I have so many but I am struggling with them, apparently, I am overwatering them, I find that when I give up on them and ignore them is when they do best, but then I go to water them and they start declining, clearly I am doing something very wrong. Any advice will really help thanks :)
Not yet Amethyst, but I will put that on my plant update list!!🙌🤓💚 That strawberry begonia is doing great and it is putting off about 5 little babies now!!😜 No more MEALYS!!🙌🤓💚
@@HeartShapedLeaves please do it would be nice to learn more about strawberry begonias I haven't been able to find a video just on them that is informational enough. I got one not too long ago and I wanted to learn more about them. Thank you! I appreciate it 😊💚
Awesome!!🤓🌿💚 Would you freakin believe that mine caught RUST and DIED in 3 days!!!!!😱😱😱😱😱 EVEN with treatment and EARLY detection. 😭😭😭😭😭 So watch out for RUST!! 😷 It will ravage those fleshy begonias in no time!!😱 Devestating!!😞
This was one of my first videos I ever filmed with my new camera......I screwed up the settings when I uploaded it but I think that’s the only video that I have that’s like that😳😳😳
@@HeartShapedLeaves i thought it was only me ! I got frustrated because I wanted to FEEL YOUR BEGONIAS WITH MY EYES ! hahaha that's very fine I'm still watching you with my tea. :) Take care !
