Begonia can be grown both in open ground and in a pot.
How to grow begonia
If you don't have much space in your garden, you can grow the plant in a container.
To grow begonias in a container, use soil with added peat. It retains moisture well.
Begonia prefers moister soil.
It is also important to grow the plant in bright light, but not in direct sunlight, but in diffused light.
Direct sunlight can burn the leaves and flowers of the plant.
Lack of light is dangerous due to the lack of flowering of begonias.
Feed the plant during the period of active growth - in summer.
How and with what to fertilize begonia in a pot
Choose universal fertilizers for flowers.
You can also add a fertilizer containing phosphorus to the soil.
This mineral promotes flowering of begonias.
Alternatively, you can make your own fertilizer using organic ingredients.
You can also use compost for fertilizing.
