Care
Begonia Red Robin grows best in bright, indirect light or partial shade. Keep the soil lightly moist but not soggy, watering when the top inch of soil feels dry. Use a well-draining potting mix, and avoid letting the plant sit in standing water. It appreciates moderate to high humidity and should be protected from cold drafts and harsh direct sun.
Pet Safety
Begonias are considered toxic to pets if ingested. Keep Begonia Red Robin away from curious cats, dogs, and other pets. Symptoms may include mouth irritation, drooling, vomiting, or stomach upset.
