Begonia Rex 'Carol Knight'

These super  spiraling leaves look like they bite, but don’t worry they’re actually quite soft. 

Begonias have some of the most diverse leaves and biggest arrays of colors making them one of our favorite plant families. 

Begonias symbolize: Starting over with hope, new opportunities, and a fresh start.

Care:

Light: bright indirect light

Water: Keep soil damp but be careful not to over water.  I water roughly every two days. 

Temps: Best kept between 65 and 80 degrees.

Tip: Begonias tend to drop leaves when they change environments. Don’t give up on your new plant. Give it time to adjust. 

Pets: contain the same crystals as the philodendron but also a crystal that can cause kidney injury and inflammation. Both dogs and cats can have the same stomach irritation previously discussed, but also fine muscle movements, lethargy, and a decrease in appetite.
