    Plant Care – Begonia maculata wightii

    Light: Place your Begonia maculata wightii under bright and filtered sunlight. And do avoid full sunlight because it will cause its leaves to scorch and dry up. Give your plant 4 to 6 hours of morning sun and nothing more.

    Water: Allow the top surface of the soil to dry up between watering the plant. We would recommend watering lesser rather than watering too much as Begonias can get root rot and other problems. Avoid watering its leaves as it will lead to bacteria growth and diseases. Above all, moderately water the soil of the plant and keep the leaves dry.

    Soil: The Begonia does well in a well-draining potting mix that can retain some moisture and drain water quickly.

    Fertiliser: Fertilise your plant with a balanced Fertiliser diluted to one-quarter strength.

    Humidity Requirement: Medium

    Begonia maculata is a perennial plant with many common names, including “polka dot begonia” and “begonia Wightii”. It is a beautiful flowering plant that you can grow in your garden or in containers. Begonia maculata is a hardy plant that will thrive in full sun to partial shade conditions. The plant has dark green leaves and bright pink flowers with red centers.

    The begonia maculata needs regular watering but avoid getting water on the leaves because they can get damaged by too much moisture. Do not allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings as this will cause browning of the leaves and stunted growth.

    The begonia maculata requires frequent feeding with a balanced fertilizer throughout the growing season. The best time to fertilize is after flowering when new growth begins appearing on the plant.

    Where does the Begonia Maculata come from?

    Begonia maculata is a tropical plant that is native to Southeast Asia, where it grows in the wild. It’s been cultivated for centuries and is widely available in home gardens around the world.

    Begonia maculata care is easy and straightforward. This plant prefers bright, indirect sunlight and needs to be watered regularly but not excessively. The soil should be kept moist, but not wet.

    The Begonia Maculata Wightii has dark green leaves with a white center that looks like polka dots. It reaches about 15 inches (38 cm) tall and has fragrant flowers that can be pink or white in color.

    And today, you can buy them at TheGreenCorner.com.sg and get them delivered straight to your doorstep in no time!

    Begonia Maculata: the Polka Dot Begonia 

    The Begonia Maculata is commonly known as the Polka Dot Begonia and is usually sold as a houseplant.

    The Begonia Maculata is a perennial plant that grows up to 1m tall. It is native to Malaysia and Indonesia and can be found in tropical climates. The leaves are oval with pointed tips, which are dark green on top and pale below.

    The flowers are white or pink and can be spotted on new growth or on mature stems. They have five petals each, with three inner lobes and two outer ones joined at their bases. The flowers grow in clusters at the top of each stem.

    The Begonia Maculata is an attractive plant that can be kept as a houseplant or grown outdoors in warm climates. 

    Here are some care tips for your Begonia Maculata, Polka Dot Begonia, to thrive!

    Plant Care – Begonia maculata

    Light: Place your Begonia maculata under bright and filtered sunlight. And do avoid full sunlight because it will cause its leaves to scorch and dry up. Give your plant 4 to 6 hours of morning sun and nothing more. If it is placed in an aea with too much shade over a prolong period, the begonia maculata will grow leggy.

    Water: Allow the top surface of the soil to dry up between watering the plant. We would recommend watering lesser rather than watering too much as Begonias can get root rot and other problems. Avoid watering its leaves as it will lead to bacteria growth and diseases. Above all, moderately water the soil of the plant and keep the leaves dry. A good rule of thumb is to water your begonia till water flows through the pot’s drainage holes. Pour away any access water from its saucer.

    Soil: The Begonia does well in a well-draining potting mix that can retain moisture and drain water quickly.

    Fertiliser: Fertilise your plant with a slow-release fertiliser. We would recommend fertilising with Nutricote’s 13-11-11 NPK fertiliser. We use this fertiliser for the majority of our plants in retail.

    Humidity Requirement: Medium to High. Give its environment an occasional mist or place your begonia maculata together with other plants for higher humidity. Ensure that your begonia maculata enjoys ventilation and air circulation.

    Pest control: The begonia maculata is susceptible to many pests such as scale insects, red spider mites and aphids. If you notice any pests on your plant, it is important that you treat them immediately to prevent further infestation or damage to your plants. We would recommend spraying your insecticides once every week as a preventive measure. If your plant is infested with pests, spray your insecticide once every 3 days until the infestation has mitigated.

    1. Do I need to fertilise my begonia? Is fertilising my Begonia necessary?

    Yes, fertilising your begonia is important. Begonias are considered heavy feeders when it comes to fertiliser. This, however, does not mean that fertilising will be a hassle. All you need is to feed it with a recommended amount of granular slow-release fertiliser to its soil. It will only be 3 to 4 months later when you have to fertilise your begonia again.

    2. Can the Begonia Maculata bloom flowers?

    Yes, they absolutely can! The Begonia Maculata blooms with beautiful white flowers. Essentially, your very own Begonia Maculata can flower when it receives bright, indirect sunlight. Ideally, place it indoors near a window where it can receive bright sunlight filtered by the glass panels of your window.
