    I purchased my 1st begonia on a trip in Tampa, FL a few weeks ago and I knew absolutely nothing about them until watching your earlier video w/ Steve of Steve's Leaves and now this one w/ Sandy Soh . So incredibly informative and I look forward to adding many more begonia species to my collection! Thanks to you both for sharing your knowledge! :)

    Once I got over the "begonias are your grandparents plants" mindset I found them to be a joy to grow! My technique is very similar to Sandy's except I use a domed container since I'm not right above the equator. I use the plastic domed containers they put rotisserie chickens in at the market. Be nice to your deli/supermarket workers plant people and they'll be more than happy to give you some. They're great friends for a plant person to have!

      @@petercardona1559 I am wondering if plastic containers are going to be phased out, what will be possible to use. Maybe buy specific ones for the purpose, reusable domes. Clear plastic shoeboxes are something that can also be used (an I use clear large plastic containers for when I travel 2 weeks to keep plants from drying out while I am away)

      @@petercardona1559 I think it would be for the better good to ban plastic single use containers that are a plague in the USA. Just the coffee lids / iced coffee containers, styrofoam cups, salad container impact the environment for 100s of years for a single 5 minute use. Chicken could be sold in a foil or paper container. I am trying to minimize / avoid as much as I can. Recycling is not the answer as plastic can be recycled only a few times, and in NYC often recycling ends up in the regular trash. Plastic use and increasing population are an environmental disaster. Plastic litter desert beaches from NYC to the Caribbean , and microplastics float in the ocean. Time to be responsible.

      Does this work with the maculata? :)
      I can’t seem to get a cutting to propagate I don’t understand why :(
      I cut under the node leaving a bit of stem and it also had 3 leaves on it. Second day in water and the stalks on one of the leaves looked sad and next day was mushy so I cut it off, then the rest of the cutting started happening the same. I still have it in water to see if anything will happen as it had one small shoot coming and it still looks OK.
      I been unlucky with these :/

    This plant is so interesting and easy to propagate. I would love to hear more about this begonia. Is Sandy have a channel too? I'm loving this propagating series of yours Summer 💕 this past few weeks I'm getting this urge to love more different kinds of plants it's just they always die. That's why I stopped buying and having them in my home. But lately we just move to a new home and I think our water here is much better and the sunlight too. I'm starting to buy some few plants and they're still alive maybe it's the water or sunlight or maybe I'm just more curious lately of my plants and searching on how to take care of them properly.

      I receive my plants from overseas always bare root. First thing to do would be to remove any rotten roots or leaves of the plant. Try potting them up in long fiber sphagnum moss. After they take root, you can transfer to any other media that you want or just leave them in the sphagnum.
