I always said I didn't really like begonias but then I found myself with 9 different begonias and I don't know what's happening 😂😭
People with plants are crazy responsible. Madddd respect!! I’m a first time plant mom. I’m attempting at keeping Greg (my fist plant, a polka dot plant) alive, and now I have my succulent mini, and angel (my begonia Rex).Tysm for the tips!! Loveeed the video.
What perfect timing! I just got my first begonia and I knew they were sensitive but I didnt know what they wanted. I got a gorgeous begonia escargot. I'm considering a bell jar for it but its crammed in the middle of my plant shelf to help with humidity.
I love that begonia are so dramatic when they're thirsty haha. Also, considering getting a discord now....to talk plants & ice cream 😆
I just purchased my first Begonia (Rex) from Lowe’s for $1! I can’t wait to learn about it and your video was great! I’m loving the dramatic plants so this’ll be perfect! Your voice is amazing by the way and I’m sure my Gia (that’s her name lol) will be happy I found your videos!
The pain to pleasure ratio of begonias is too much for me. I like to enjoy my plants, not constantly stress. I’ll just admire them from a distance. 😍😍😍
I just like to stick them in jars. You can leave them alone in there for weeks without watering and they burst with growth. 🤷♀️
I got a Rex Begonia last month. I’m hoping I don’t succumb to killing my first one and get beginner’s luck. Lol So far he’s been happy with his window mates. I will say I’ve never seen a more dramatic plant from under watering than the begonia. It’s like a child than throws a temper tantrum and then stops like nothing happened after you give it a happy meal. Also I appreciate and love that you’re promoting #BLM all the way from Europe. I’m a first time plant parent and I recently discovered your channel and I’m loving the content!
Did it live???? If it did tell me howwwww
Yeah these and peace lilies are dramatic when they are thirsty
I bought myself my first Rex begonia and I keep it in my bathroom window. It’s still going strong for a few months now 😭
This was so informative! In NH, US we have such damp summers that all my outdoor squash plants WILL get mildew. But our winters are so dry!! Looks like I'll be moving my begonia into the bathroom this winter.
Just bought my first Begonia today! Thanks for the tips and thank you for supporting Black Lives Matter!!!
Thank you very much for sharing. I am currently doing experiments with my begonias on semi hydroponics. I have a Little Brother Montgomery - cane begonia - that was at the end of extinction when I placed it in perlite and ignored it for weeks and now it's back! Looking lusher than ever. But Powdery mildew is my worst enemy I really hate it so much!!! I treat the leaves with 3% hydrogen peroxide diluted in water plus I have added a fan to my "begonia corner" hopefully, that'll do the job... to soon to know. Regards from Scotland :)
Thank you Betsyyyy!! I just put two Rex Begonias in my terrarium and they’re thriving! But I didn’t know ANYTHING about begonias so thank you thank you! my first Begonia I got at the beginning of my plant collection journey definitely died immediately lol.
Mine do great in a vase/bell jar. They don't need watering for long periods of time and really burst with growth in the high humidity.
Happy to report I've gotten my very first rex! She's tiny, but I'm rewatching all of your videos that have begonia info to make sure I'm ready to be a new begoner mom hahahaha 😂
My friend got be one of these but she doesn’t know much about plants. I had no idea what it was before but mine is still alive and I haven’t done any research. Im glad I saw this video because my cat bit off a leaf (he spit it out) and it would have died without your help! Thank you lol
I was looking for Rex Begonia care and clicked on your video because your channel has Begonia in its name, and I am _not_ disappointed. So entertaining and informative 👏
I want to start collecting begonias because they're _so pretty,_ but I don't know how to care for them. I have 3 begonias. One is a cane Begonia that always grows big and beautiful and then has a tantrum and throws all her leaves at me (an ongoing cycle for the last 3 years), one is a very sad 1-leaved rex, and the last is a rex that is happy & beautiful because I've owned it for less than 24 hours 😅 Once I master the care for these, I'll start adding to my collection. I expect your channel to be a new favorite as I navigate my not-quite-homicidal journey collecting Begonias.
I felt offended by your intro because it's SO ME 😭🤣
Rex Begonias are me favourite of the Begonia family! They all live in my bathroom in a West facing window. I do find that finding out which ones I have can be difficult though.
Thank you for a good laugh here, we need it! Besides helpful and quite beautiful, I find you also entertaining and fun which is great quality. That being said, I am a new subscriber.
Thank you for supporting Black Lives Matter!
I just got myself two of these and they both died within two weeks (!!!) even though I'd usually say I'm good at plant care. Thank you so much for your help!!!
It took me a long time too.
Betsy, I love your videos!! This might be a weird question on a plant video....but, over lock down my hair grew out. Well, I've been letting it grow out since the beginning of the year, but I know that at some point in April or May, I would have gotten tired of dealing with it, and got the chop...but I didn't. Now, being in a salon isn't something I'm wanting to go do. I love how you pull your hair back. Would you mind sharing how you do your hair like this? lol I'm used to having short hair, and I'm kinda digging having longer hair now, and knowing how to keep my darn bangs out of my eyes might help me keep it growing! GINGERS UNITE! :)
You are one of the few people teaching about begonias, thank you!
Thank you for not assuming the "this is a planty place" position during this important time. BLACK LIVES MATTER!
Gtfo
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've avoided so many begonias bc everyone said they were very hard, but you're right, you gotta practice to learn!
Appreciate you adding resources for BLM related stuff at the end
I find rizomatus begonias to be quite say as long as you choose the right ones. The thin leaved ones and especially the rex begonias are susceptible to powdery mildew and are quite finicky, but the 'leathery' leaved ones, like 'tiger kitten', 'cleopatra' or 'persian brocade' are quite easy to grow as long as you give them the right light. Nice video, thanks Betsy!
✊🏾 love this channel! Thank you BB
That intro though. 😭 Subscribed!
Thanks for the tips and the Skillshare link, much appreciated!
Plants don't the skin of the person that cares for them, they just want to feel loved. Human should learn a lot from plants. Thank you for using your platform and voice.
Enjoyed your video you are a hoot you made me smile also learned some things about begonias thank you
Had to click on that notification as soon as I saw the title! Thanks Betsy :)
Thank you for watching Abby!
:D this is like a stand-up about plant care! love it :D
Angel will LIVE (my rex begonia) She’s my very first begonia, and I adore her. Who am I kidding she’s gonna die and I’m already so attachedddd
do you have any videos about 'eyelash begonias'?...i have one growing from starts and it is getting quite tall and chasing light...i live in nw Montana and am facing clouds, fog, and snow for the next several months...any ideas??? otherwise the plant looks healthy, the coloring is quite beautiful and it has lots of new leaflets...thanks!
Begonias aren’t really my cup of tea but I swear you’re going to give me the begonia bug. Just as you did with Hoya’s! It’s all yoooooouuuurrrr faaaaauuuult 😠
jk❤️ love you!
It started with cane type and it's snowballed.
Please,could you tell how to fix an old leggy rhizomatous begonia? No one covered this subject.Thank you
Probably needs more light.
Sieeenku for all the information!!
The only Begonia I've been keeping alive for years and it's taller than 1m right now, is the one I've kept outdoors!!!! It's a Rex one. And I have three more which are hanging on, I think one of them has something bacterial going on though...
I've recently burried my cute, tiny 'listada' (RIP), so I just got another tiny one, a 'soli-mutata'. We'll see how long it'll last... My bulb Begonias on the other hand, wow... They came back from the dead and they are even blooming!! 😻
If I'll ever be able to film and edit videos again, I'll definitely film those.
Have a wonderful evening!! 😘
I killed a lot of Begonias and even if I loved them to bits I'm kinda scared to try again. At the moment I just want to appreciate them from other people videos, pictures and garden centre 😁
Had to watch even though I don't have any begonias nor will I ever. However, still enjoyed the video and your antics.
Hi. I know this is an old video. I’m wondering if you know if I can keep my prop (rescued-from me) in Sphagnum moss? I propped her from the last sad leaves and got 3 babies who have been living in this jar for 5 months. She’s a Rex Harmony’s Moody Mauve.
I had sworn off of these because my heart just couldn't take it anymore, but maybe I'll try again after this video. Maiden-hair ferns are my Achilles heel too.
Maiden hair ferns will never be allowed in my home ever again.
I got my first Rex begonia, thanks for all the info 😀
I would love a video on how to prune rhizomatous begonia. Thanks!
Yaay💚 Made my day, as I'm about to get a new begonia in a couple hours
Yay!
The bell jars I’ve seen would be to small for my plants? Where do you get then?
I love begonias how do get some of these varety i am in Jamaica.
i have been into begonia for 10 years let the leaf drop then water in winter.in summer water every week. terracotta pot and good to go
Loving your energy girl! My leaves got crispy :( is there anything I can do? I'm so sorry little rex begonia...lol
Begonias so beautiful really gorgeous but their care is so terrifying. Maybe I will start with picking up my first one , one of these days.
sorry not abaut begonia. but i have a question abaut hoya, so i wanted to buy hoya davidcumingii as my second hoya and i saw yours, so what is the diameter of your pot and how many plant in one pot? just for reference.
plz help me😅 im pretty new in this hoya world😂
and i love your vid❤
I think mine has spider mites how can I treat that ?I know they’re sensitive.. please help !😢
Whenever I watch you (sometimes same video, over and over...lol) I can't stop and I want to see more. I have seen every one of your videos (and Basies) and I love you both. What a great T.V. show you guy's make........outstanding chemistry but this making a video "now and then" is unacceptable! lol just kidding....miss you!
Thank you for watching and for taking the time to leave such a kind message. 💚
You are so well spoken thank you
Thank you, that's very kind.
Loved this video. Came for the begonias, loved the BLM message ❤️ Thank you for taking a stand!
This is why I haven't tried rhizomatous begonias, 😂. When I started buying plants I was sucked into buying rieger begonias cos they're gorgeous, only to watch them die a slow, agonising death... I'm trying again, cos I'm stubborn, so maybe that little escargot is going to be my 1st sacrifice. 😂
Anyway, thank you, as always, for cheering my nights and making me laugh.
hi betsy. love your energy.
I bought begonias rex today and put it on my 10ft aquarium, I think it will happy :)
Thanks for the tip. I killed 3 of those, 2 of it was escargot. So sad....
I really like the rex begonia, and I have killed off several in the last two months, and i thought it was only me, so I was glad to see this video, and that others have done the same. Sort of like a gambler, I am hoping the next two will do better.
Can ì use plant lights for begonias? And if so how far from the plant.
Bless you!!!!
My first begonia just came in the mail and I'm so nervous D: It's all wilted, I'm hoping it just needs some consistent watering for the next few days.
I have heard that Rhizomatous Begonia only live a few years... do I need to plan to do a leaf propagation at year 3? Just got a Breakdance Begonia🕺🏻💃🏽😁
Staring at a melted ghost of a beautiful plant that you used to own.
Not that it's been my experience.
@@betsybegonia I know. You don't even have any begonias or plants. This is all an illusion. 🌀
OK. So I'm good shading it outside in Florida. Aka a terrarium 😂
I love this!
They're pretty.. But I just can't😩 I'd rather just enjoy my good ole Pothos, Snake Plants and Fiddles lol
Anyone who has begonia amphioxus if so what are you doing to keep it happy
I did cry, this is my fifth. Am going to try a ceramic self watering pot. Well that help? 🤔
Why my begonia drop some leaves this two weeks? I live in 85501 Thanks
Good idea. I want to buy more....
Probably my favorite plants, and the ones I murder the most often.
Great job yep working my way to get another one one day but for now aroids I can look after better. Did you check out the netflucks series money heist. Great job takecare it getting crazy out here in the world.💚👍
I killed one of my begonias by accident now the other one hides from me🤣
i just learnt that there is a Begonia called Betsy. it's stunning. go check it out, it becomes blue under some specific light conditions.
I've seen it but I don't think it's crossed the ocean to Europe. I've never seen it outside of the US in photos.
If I have successfully kept my moon valley pileas from melting/crisping, am I ready to try begonia again?
*begonias all over the world are praying I don't pick them*
😂 You can do it!
Anyone know if you should have a small air hole or anything when using bell jars?
I don't. I only lift them off every couple of weeks to water the plants or check on them. My Begonias thrive.
Betsy Begonia Thank you!!! I just ordered a Rex Begonia, Festive Pailsey variety :)
Lovely!
The fail proof way to care for rizo begonias is to wick water! And then you can refill the water whenever you want/remember/see it's empty.
I guess I've been lucky with rex and most begonia by letting them show signs of the leaves start flagging between watering . Thanks for sharing. #BLM
Is there one that is more tolerant as far as humidity goes? Think I could do the rest. But humidity? Not too sure....🤔
Begonia 'Fedor' and Begonia 'Escargot' are doing great.
Betsy Begonia Thank you.🙂
I've killed a few of these in the Caribbean. They love the humidity but not the heat. I don't think I will try again. My cane Begonias are living their best life now. Blooming like crazy.😎 #norexforme
Listen, I'm not entirely positive on this but I think you might be insane. I like it.
I've heard it before from people who seemed much more confident.
I also did a video where I killed my begonia. I actually killed 3. I give up on begonias..
💚💚💚
The begonia struggle is real hah, I lost some beauties.
It’s your fault I got into begonias 😂 I tend to find these easier than cane begonias 🙈
I feel so much better that most people kill their first one! Mine has about one leaf left! 😭🤣
I've killed like 4 but it's been a while.
You've made my day 🖤💚 BLM
Tmy
I think calathea and begonia are easy 😂
You are aaallllll alone. 😂
🤣🥰💕💕💕💕💕
killed 4
fuck what did i get myself into
I was enjoying your video until you got political so at that point I bailed I'm coming here to learn about plants and plant care I'm not coming here for political opinions or political suggestions. Very disappointing.
Ok.
Talks too much and too fast -- lost interest in the first 30 seconds
