Provide the plant with plenty of bright indirect sun, but keep it out of direct sunlight.

The resulting hybrids are often known in the trade only by fancy trade names dreamed up by growers looking to market their plants. As a result, you might find that the same crosses have different names in different garden centers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Origin:<\/strong> India<\/p>\n<p><strong>Light<\/strong>: Rex begonias like bright, indirect light year-round. Because they are not aggressive bloomers, they can tolerate less light than other begonias and will thrive under fluorescent lights.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Water:<\/strong> Rex begonias require regular water, but be careful not to over-water them. They also thrive on humidity but don&#8217;t like direct misting, which encourages powdery mildew. Let the soil surface become dry to the touch before watering.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Soil:<\/strong> Airy, light, fast-draining soil is best for rex begonias.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Temperature:<\/strong> Rex begonias perform best with indoor temperatures ranging between 15\u00b0C to 29\u00b0C<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fertilizer:<\/strong> Once the Rex Begonia starts growing in spring, fertilize with an all-purpose, water-soluble houseplant fertilizer applied at quarter strength. Reapply every two weeks while the plant is actively growing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Humidity:<\/strong> Probably one of the biggest problems with growing Rex begonias indoors is making sure you create humid conditions for them. They are true drama queens if they don\u2019t get enough and will fail to thrive. Beware &#8211; they don&#8217;t like direct misting!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pruning:<\/strong> Rex begonias require minimal pruning unless long, bare stems require cutting back, or you\u2019d like to create a fuller plant. Using clean pruning snips simply cut the stem back to the base and the remaining portion should sprout new leaves and stems. Pinching the tips on younger plants helps them grow fuller too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Re-Potting:<\/strong> Rex begonias are rhizomatous plants that grow from a shallow and knobby rhizome. As such, they do best in large, relatively shallow pots where the rhizome has room to spread. If the rhizome still has room to grow in its pot, the begonia should be considered happily potted. When the rhizome begins to butt up against the sides of the pot, however, it&#8217;s time to repot into a fresh pot with fresh soil. You can divide the rhizome when repotting to increase your plant stock.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Propagation:<\/strong> Rhizomatous begonias such as the rex begonia can be easily propagated by rhizome division during repotting. Almost all begonia species will readily sprout from leaf-tip cuttings. A rooting hormone can help the cuttings sprout. Rex Begonias can also be propagated by pinning a leaf to the bedding mix and making small incisions in the leaf veins or by inserting a leaf (with a petiole) directly into the soil. The petiole is the stalk that attaches the leaf blade to the plant stem.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Diseases and Pests:<\/strong> Rex begonias are often troubled by mildew and botrytis fungal disease.Mealy bugs can also be an issue. To prevent them, keep the plant well-trimmed and remove dead leaves from the surface of the planting mix.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Toxicity:<\/strong> Toxic. The plant contains soluble calcium oxalates, which are toxic to cats and dogs. Problems associated with ingesting the plant, especially the underground portions, include kidney failure, drooling and vomiting. Select a location out of the reach of children and your pets.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Montserrat Alternates|900|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Montserrat Alternates|900|||||||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">begonia rex origins &amp; overview<\/h3>\n&nbsp;\n\nAmong the various types of begonias, Begonia Rex is one of the most beautiful and stunning plants. Sometimes called painted-leaf begonias or fancy-leaf begonias, these plants are known for their showy, sometimes jaw-dropping leaf coloration. They frequently have large leaves (up to 6 inches long) that are brightly colored in various shades of green, red, silver, and even purple. These plants are grown almost exclusively for their foliage\u2014their blooms tend to be small and less showy, so many growers pinch off blooms to maintain breathtaking leaf displays. Some types of Rex Begonias go into dormancy during the winter.

Look at the container\u2019s soil and if the top has just dried, water until it runs out of the pot\u2019s bottom drain holes. However, don\u2019t keep the soil overly moist or rot can occur and don\u2019t allow the soil to get so dry the Rex begonia wilts.\n\nIf you use a saucer under the pot to catch the water, empty it after the container has fully drained. You can also fill the saucer with small pebbles and sit the pot on top, as it lifts it out of the wet conditions.\n\nTry to apply the water only to the soil and keep it off the foliage, which reduces disease problems. If you water early in the day, it gives the foliage time to dry before nightfall.\n\nDuring the winter, when the Rex begonia isn\u2019t actively growing, cut back watering to about once every two to three weeks.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221;][et_pb_text ul_item_indent=&#8221;50px&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.3&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Montserrat Alternates|900|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; header_3_font=&#8221;Montserrat Alternates|900|||||||&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">repotting the begonia rex<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>An essential thing to remember when potting your Rex begonia is to not \u201cmanhandle\u201d it, as the root system is very sensitive and delicate.
