- The Begonia Maculata care tips is one of the most highly requested so far… I explain in great details how to care for them in terms of light, water, pests. I also address fungal and bacterial issues with these plants… They are considered an easy and fast growing plants, although the care does look a little bit different from your other tropical houseplants. I propagate this plant in water and in soil. and then show you guys an update on the cuttings 6 weeks later later.

I’m so happy you recorded the bad results! Seriously! Because most of the times, plant youtubers tend to only show the good outcomes for propagations and often they don’t work when I do it... and I live in Brazil, so no humidity problems whatsoever 😂😅 yeah, just , GREAT VIDEO!
Thank you 😌
I live In brazil too🥰
Hey Gabriela,
I have a friend who lives in Brazil too (São Paulo)
Is what we call it “rare plants” in Europe specially aroids like variegated Adansonii and so on cheap in Brazil for local? I just want to know as he asking me to let him know what I would like to buy... I will be grateful if you reply to my message 🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰
@@leilal544 Hi! I'm from brazil too and I can respond your comment even though it passed 5 months. So, no, rare plants here aren't cheap. I've never found variegated adansonii, for example. The variagated deliciosa costs about 1000-2000 reais which is one to two minimum salaries here and about 200 to 400 us dolars. The begonia maculata costs about 120-200 reais (30 to 40 dolars). But the rarest ones are expensive for us.
I've never had plants look like his he needs to stop killing plants 🪴 😅 😳 😂 😐
Vomiting out the leaves 😂😂😂 that is so accurate LOL I'll think of that every time mine pushes out a new one lol
🤮😅
"All the cool plants are from Brazil" Owwww, so cute! Greetings from Brazil!
😀😀
I purchased my polka dot begonia today from Walmart. I couldn’t believe my eyes, $16 for a 6” decorative pot. I’m super excited because this is my first Begonia. Wish me luck.
Lucky you! I bought mine today too, same size but for $24 😕
I got mine from Walmart as well... it was dying so they sold it to me for $8
@@TheNaturalfirefly same! 😅
I was looking for nice looking begonia for over 6months- all I saw had partly dried leaves...and finally I found my beauty for £8! So excited and happy, that you guys found beautifull ones as well 🥰
Hope it goes well. I got mine in Von's grocery store in Catalina Island last week for $8. It is pretty healthy. It is now repotted and in our home in Long Beach.
All the cool plants are from Brazil!! Me a Brazilian girl learning about plants listening to this like : awnnnn 🥰🥰🥰
Cool people are from Brazil too 😀
Awesome video!! Thank you sooo much for showing the "3 weeks later" results in the same video. I really appreciate it because it helps viewers who are trying to learn!!
When you got so excited about the cute little baby begonia leaves being born, I felt the same! Soooooooooo cute!
Yesss I have a video on baby leaves coming soon and these begonias take the crown for the cutest babies
The dedication and consistency behind each video you post is so impressive!! Thank you for taking your time to film these wholesome contents for us Sean💕 turning us into avid watchers by the day😌
Thank you. I’m just getting started 😏
I was given a begonia maculate 6 years ago and it is thriving!!! Just found out what kind of plant it was a couple months ago so I decided to give water propagation a try. Having great success growing indoors here in Montana. Thank you for your video!
This was a great video, thank you for doing the follow up videos. So helpful hope my begonia stays alive and well with this advice 😊
You: I got the care for these plants down!!! 😀
Also you: .... I live in the tropics
😩😩😩😂😂😂⚰️⚰️⚰️💀💀💀💀
Thank you! This was the best info about polka dot begonias that I found so far. I am in love with this plant. So beautiful.
Thank you Sean for sharing your knowledge. You are my go to for learning about plants 😊
😍Thank you Sean, pleasantly surprised to see you uploaded again so quickly! 🤗
😌🙏🏽
You are so positive and lovely. This was a treat to watch. Thank you so much.
I love your vibe and I absolutely appreciate that you live in the tropics just as I do!!! I enjoyed this video and look forward to the many more you post!
I got two cuttings for about $2 and decided to root them in soil. Now they have roots, so I’m waiting for their baby leaves. Wish us luck!
Great Video and info! Just got my first plant and I'm so excited! Thank you!!
I learned a lot from this video even though I don't live in the tropics. Having tried several propagation methods I too find the water propagation the way to go when propagating most house plants.
Thank you so much for doing updates! It’s so helpful!
Thank you for a very informative video. I am receiving my Begonia Maculata next week, so the timing of me seeing this video, is perfect😁
Thanks so much,I just got my begonia a month ago and now I can propagate it 👍Thnks to you ❤️❤️❤️
your intelligence and care for all your plants makes me smile (:
🙈🙈
I’m usually very critical of videos... I love your video! You were on topic, didn’t ramble showed us some helpful information as well as putting time in editing tI be a better video! I enjoyed this more than the fancy you tubers with fancy equipment! Thanks for sharing your love and knowledge of plants with us.
Thank youu
Always super informative, thank you. I learnt they need a scheduled watering cycle and they grow best when staked up. After watching your video, I feel more equipped to grow my baby plant. Thank you!
This was so helpful and I love how much you enjoy the details about the plants! Thank you!
🥰🥰
I just bought one this week so this video came at the right time!! I'm going to watch it carefully :B
im feeling brave enough to propagate mine now!! Thanks!!💚
This is such an amazing & informative video, and I love the way you speak about the plants! I can tell that you love them, thank you for this!
😀😀
Thanks a lot for this video. I haven't enjoyed a plant themed video as much as yours in quite a while. Lots of information and still entertaining and funny. 😊
Thank youu 😀
only discovered this channel today and I'm going on a little binge watch, absolutely love your energy and enthusiasm! and thank you for sharing the proportions that didn't work out
Whoaa thank you
Thanks for the weeks-long updates! Even though it was challenging to do your own camera work it still came out very well. Kudos!!
Thank youu
May I just say I enjoyed all the detail and info of hard work you put into this video I actually have the same exact plant been trying to find the perfect video to care for it Thank you so much 🙏🏼
Good luck 😀
I just bought one last week and it’s so cute! 🤗
Love to see your propagation with updates. It makes me want to propagate mine. 🤣
Haha do itttt!
Omg i love this guy. I’ve been looking at begonias but have been hesitant since they seem tricky . GREAT VIDEO
Begonias are easy once you get the hang of it. Most of them have similar type care 😀
Love how you let is see the 3- week later result of your work and the closeup camera shots of the plants as you take cuttings so that we can actually see what u do.
Every time I search for a plant on TH-cam I swear you’re the first result and you’re holding the biggest [whatever plant] I’ve ever seen lol. These polka dot begonia are so pretty. Finally got one and have high hopes!
😀😀
Thanks for this very informative and friendly video. I have a beautiful maculata begonia that I’d love to propagate and thanks to you I will proceed. 😊
Thank you. 😀😀❤️
That was the most helpful video ever!! Thank you! I got one a Fee weeks ago and she is doing great so far, but i realized i water her to much, so you saved my Begonia 😄
Thank you so much for this! The little plastic bottle propagation worked well for me, finally! I have been trying for a long time.
Happy to hear!
as someone living in the tropics and are looking at care for specific plants you highlight, this is so helpful!
😀
Thank you for sharing your expertise. You are honest with mistakes that you have made which helps so much for many of us. Thanks again
😌😌
We are SO lucky! Thank you for this video, needed it so badly!
Thank you 😌🙏🏽
Great video, I like the way u showed both bad and good result of the plants. Because sometime I do have the same problems
Much needed information, I purchased my first one today for £8.50 and was a bit concerned by the drying leaves and buds so was so happy to hear you explain why this may happens, so thanks a lot
You're so likable! This is the first video of yours I'm watching but I can already tell I'll enjoy your channel al lot :)
Whoaaa thank you ❤️ welcome to the channel
I love your channel!! Thank you for showing the propagation anatomy part! So many people skip that part, and it's exactly what I'm always looking for. I also really appreciate the updates, and results from different methods. Thank you so much!
Thank youuu. Propagation is a major part of plant care for me. All plants must be propagated as they will always outgrow the space its given. Besides who dont want more plants? 😃
@@onlyplants exactly!!!
I did the cone cutting way and it has rooted in a fast food container with sphagnum moss. I plant my adult plants in chunky orchid mix in a pot without drainage too and it does great.
This was fantastic! I learned so much valuable information. I really appreciate your thoroughness. I was afraid to prune my leggy maculata but now I can’t wait!!
Be sure to water it less after a prune 😀
Thank you for all the great information, I just purchased my first one
Hi Shawn, just chance upon your posting. Great guidance and I have recently spent a substantial sum for a 3 leaf begonia malculata. It has now grown to about 7-8 leaves after 1.5 months and I have just learnt from you how to propagate them. Many thanks again and please continue to share your knowledge & skills with us
You’re welcome. They are such fast growers. 😀
I adore your passion, I get so excited over cute new little babies too and I can feel your excitement which I love. Hope they're still doing well for you. I'm in the UK but have such a love for all the beautiful tropical plants, Borneo is my favourite place on earth and I try to replicate a beautiful rainforest in my house so I always feel like I'm there
Mannnn I wanna visit Borneo someday
I just brought my first begonia maculata last week and after your video I am more confident about maintaining a healthy plant. I am a new subscriber and so happy I found your channel. Greetings and love from Croatia! :)
Thank youu and good luck with the plant
Wonderful video! Thank you so much. These are on of my favorite plants. I grow them indoors in the South of France as well as the angel wing begonia outside (the one that looks like these but have smaller leaves and pink flowers), and I just started growing them in the Philly USA...and am hopping they do as well as the ones I have in the South! My plant here in the US is new and still small, and I hope it becomes as beautiful as your.
Thank you again
Shawn, I love this fun plant! Thank you for giving us so many great tips. I will start propagating them...wish me luck!
😀😀
I love your blooper comments. So funny. Thank you for posting this!! I'm ready to propagate now
🙈🙈
I just discovered you on IG and I’m so happy it brought me here. Keep up the awesome content! (: Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦
Its nice to be connected to you too. Hope all is well in Canada 🙌🏻
Thank u for this...the only video I have found after a lot of searching that showed me what to do with my one stem, on leaf & node at the bottom to propagate 😍💥
😀
Sending a big thanks FROM BRAZIL to your channel. I live next to the city where all these greenhouses for exportation take place in Brazil, and I just got one of this today. Love your channel. keep it up.
❤️❤️
You were right about those spots that can occur on the leaf being due to bacterial or fungal... Sometimes I think it's because my collection of begonias grows larger than the space there in because of being overcrowded! So I try to keep the ceiling fan going where my first collection is in the dining area. I noticed a couple plants coming from all three nurseries had signs of either fungal or bacterial on the leaves so what I did is I cut that part of the leaf off because the plants were not that large and I was afraid to cut back on photosynthesis by removing the whole leaf. I didn't spray them I just cut back the leaves and provided good air circulation and the problem cleared up but the problem came from the nursery not from my home.
Thank you. Bought one of these on "clearance" so I think I got a good deal. Learning a lot about it. 👍
Yayeee 😀 i have a later video on this plant, released last week. It has update and advanced care tips
@@onlyplants : thank you. I will check it out 👍
Great realistic and relatable content! Thank you!!!
🙏🏽🙏🏽
Love Begonias. All your plants are so healthy and nice
Thank you for this informative video. Watching from the Philippines. ☺️
Thank you so much for this, please do more about begonias, especially their media...thank you once again 💕
Hello do check out my video on forest floor potting mix as well as begonia black velvet. I have a feeling they will help address a lot of begonia issues. More to come!
I’m having such a hard time to keep my begonias alive. Thank you for all the great information.
😀
You give me hope! Thank you for this video!
Excellent presentation. Gosh... I always have my sister-in-law to thank, as she had presented me with my first ever Begonia Plant. Just would not stop growing... so I learned over the years... propagating.. and Gifting Friends. Very temperamental plant but a Beaty to have as a companion in the Living Room.
She is temperamental so we can always look at her lol.
New here!!!! This video was very helpful!!! I just got one from lows and she to me doesn't look good, but now I know she just needs a little TLC ! Thank you for you help and tips! Very much appreciated
🥰🥰
Thank you so much. Your video is so much helpful and informative. You have shown all the good and bad results which is more helpful for us to know the growth of plant
Thank you, failure is just as important as success. They teach the best lessons. Happy planting!
They are so interesting. Thank you so much for explaining about them.
😀❤️
its easy to propagate in water because i already did that, new subs here🥰
This was a very informative video, thank you so much 🙏🏼💚🙋🏻♀️🕊
This video was very helpful! My polkadotted Begonia has been dropping leaves, but with all this info I hope I'll be able to bring it back! Thank you!!
😀😀😀 happy to hear
We're you able to bring her back?
Hi. My neighbour has given me a polka dot begonia and it’s grown so quick. I thought I’d pop over to your channel and subscribe as you are very knowledgeable. Thank you for advise 👍🏻🌸
Sweet, thank you!! 🥰
Thank you so much for this awesome video, full of information, that I really needed for my Begonia

😀😀
This video is so helpful! Thank you!
Thank you ❤️ gives me insight for propagating mine
Thank you for this! I brought a cutting and I was worried about it until I saw your video
I love my polkadot begonia. Was wondering how to propagate her. It’s so happy where I have it right now and I don’t want it to get tooooo big rn so I’m thinking of propagating it rather than just trimming it down.
So this video is perfect, very informative
Thank youu
i love begonias ang iove watching your videos.. very i formative. thanks for sharing
Thank you. I hope to propagate more begonias and share process. They have the highest failure rate so far 😀
You always make me laugh:) I love your videos. I love your propagations and that you're 'so greedy' with them:) Thank you!
Great video
very good! friendly with lots of info. thanks!
Just found you. Love the videos. Your authenticity is endearing.
🙈
This was very helpful, thank you!!
I love all your videos thank you so much for sharing. You are amazing and I love your personality. As far as these poke-a-dot begonias , they are way out of my league right now but hopefully in a year or 2 I'll be coming back to this video to try and figure them out 💚💚💚💚
I hope you can get your hands on one they are actually fast growers and easy to propagate so I think they will catch up with demand
Thanks for the video. I'm starting my first attempt to propagate the Polka Dot Begonia with a single cutting that I received, of one leaf that has a spike.
Thank you for the amazing information!
Thanks for this video. It has helped me to relax and not to be over stresses. About my polka-dot begonias maculata
Very informative and a little funny! Thank you 🤮 🌱
Thank You after watching this now I have courage to do it to my begonia 🙏 thanks... 😁🌱
Hope you have great success 😛
