🌿 In today's video, we delve into the captivating world of Begonias, exploring 7 magnificent reasons why these plants deserve a spot in your house, greenhouse, or both! Whether you're a seasoned Begonia lover or a skeptic, this video has something for everyone. Let's uncover the beauty and benefits of growing Begonias.
Reason 1: Diverse Genus
Begonias, hailing from tropical and semi-tropical regions worldwide, form a diverse genus with a vast array of appearances, growth habits, and colours. Forget the misconception that Begonias are just summer bedding plants; there's a multitude of groups, each offering unique characteristics. With approximately 2000 species and countless hybrids, Begonias cater to every taste.
Reason 2: Foliage Royalty
Begonias reign supreme in the realm of foliage. As frequent bloomers, these plants offer double the pleasure with stunning foliage and periodic blossoms.
Reason 3: Low-Light Champions
Living in the north with less-than-ideal light levels? Fear not! Begonias, except for tuberous and semperflorens types, thrive in lower light conditions. Even under the canopy of 250-year-old trees, Begonias flourish, making them perfect houseplants for varying light situations.
Reason 4: Easy Propagation
Much like popular Tradescantia plants, Begonias are a breeze to propagate. Learn the art of propagation to ensure you never run out of these delightful plants. Check the description for a demo video on various propagation methods.
Reason 5: Pruning Perks
Is your Begonia outgrowing its pot? No worries! Most Begonias can be pruned back hard, resulting in tidy, rejuvenated growth. Plus, you get plenty of material for further propagation.
Reason 6: Low-Maintenance Watering
Bid farewell to daily watering chores! Many Begonias prefer a drier environment. Enjoy observing your plants without being a slave to frequent watering.
Reason 7: Air Purifiers?
While it's not extensively studied, there's a consensus that Begonias can filter impurities during photosynthesis, potentially improving indoor air quality. An interesting aspect to consider as you enjoy the greenery in your home.
Reason 8: Subscriber Insights
I reached out to my subscribers, and here's what they had to say about growing Begonias. Their comments might just inspire you to join the Begonia enthusiast club!
In conclusion, if none of these reasons convinced you, perhaps a tour of my Begonia varieties from last summer will. Check out the video linked in the description before making your Begonia purchase.
