Begonia ‘Chayo’ | Established Plant | 4” Nursery Pot

🌿 Wyrd Plant Co. Care Card

🌞 Light: Bright, indirect light is ideal. Plenty of filtered light helps maintain Begonia ‘Chayo’s’ rich coloration and distinctive foliage pattern. Avoid prolonged direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the leaves.

💧 Water: Water when the top 1 inch of soil begins to feel dry. Keep the soil lightly and consistently moist without allowing it to become soggy. Allow excess water to drain completely and never let the plant sit in standing water.

💦 Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity, ideally 50% or higher. Consistent humidity encourages healthy foliage, but good airflow is equally important.

🌡️ Temperature: Thrives between 65 and 80°F (18 to 27°C). Protect from temperatures below 60°F, cold drafts, and sudden temperature changes.

🌱 Soil: A light, airy, well-draining mix that retains some moisture is ideal. A blend containing quality potting soil, perlite, fine orchid bark, and horticultural charcoal works well.

🌿 Fertilizer: Feed every 3 to 4 weeks during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce feeding during periods of slower winter growth.

🐾 Pet Safety: Not considered pet safe if ingested. Keep away from pets and small children.

🌎 Difficulty: Easy to Moderate
