  • The Begonia maculata wightii is a quintessential houseplant, offering a pop of color to indoor and outdoor growing spaces and teaching valuable plant care lessons for all levels of plant parents. It is also considered to be a gateway Begonia. In this episode, I rescue a sad looking plant into many healthy and happy babies by propagation. I also discuss a theory about their red undersides, and attempt to bring them back. As usual, I show satisfying updates at the end of the episode!

    I bought one of these and it kept getting pests but after many rounds of pesticide treatments and 9 months later it is finally growing. I’m in US in a very dry state and I must keep the soil moist as the leaf tips dry out. I have had very difficult time propagating these also. Water here just isn’t working so next time I will put them in dirt in a ziploc baggie

    • @onlyplants
      @onlyplants  Před 7 měsíci +1

      Whoaaa we have different struggles with this plant, i tend to overwater here

    Yay, the red is back! Hehe
    I haven't had much time to do propagations lately, so I've been a lot less nitpicky when I do get around to it. A couple months ago my cane begonias have been flopping over, so I decided to make time to propagate them. All I had a couple of minutes since I didn't want to have to put if off again, so I just mindlessly chopped them off and stuck them into the surrounding pots. They all made it. Haha

    I love your rescue and propagation videos. I learn so much! On a side note, what is that velvety plant on the right side of the screen? Is it a gloriosum? It's beautiful.

    • @onlyplants
      @onlyplants  Před 7 měsíci

      That is a glorious. A hybrid between gloriosum and melanochrysum. Im actually propagating it for a video. Hence it is looking terrible 😅

    How funny would it be to see a Sasquatch in the tents when you opened them up all chill
    Like… would seem this site has been a cold file for a bit now. My theory is since all the visits and noise/human habituation, may have scared the subjects away from the area. Makes sense in the start of their construction of the site to have the creatures come to visit as we encroach on their territories much like deer in the new “suburbs” that may have thus pushed them out of the area. Lord know if I had a backyard like this my arse would move away from a bunch of annoying neighbors too.

    Hi my bigonia is losing her leaves by getting dry and crispy.and also getting black dots on the back of the leaves.Can you please help me to make my plant happy as it was before. Thanks

    • @onlyplants
      @onlyplants  Před měsícem

      Try propagating and starting over if you can. Water propagation might be best in your case. You can spray some neem oil with soapy water in case theres existing infection.

    My begonia maculata is not growing much. It’s stay as same size last 2,3years. I wonder why…blooming though.

    • @onlyplants
      @onlyplants  Před 7 měsíci

      Maybe its reached a maximum size…

  • @larryl4881
    @larryl4881 Před 7 měsíci +1

    I live in the desert of the USA and have one for about 2 years now. How would you prevent the leaves crisping and falling off. It’s a drama queen imo

    My maculata was heading south rapidly. I tried to make leaf cuttings, but all died. Now it has launched a feverish spurt of growth, and I'm letting it go wherever it wants to go. It isn't a foot tall .LMAO!

      Thank you. I might… do both formats. CZcams is really pushing us content creators to expand our contents to wider audience. Its actually very time consuming but I learn so much 😀

    Which pink leaved plant is that in the background, Sean?

    • @onlyplants

      I believe that is the syngonium pink perfection
