Begonija Tenella Rdeča

Begonia tenella, also known as delicate begonia, is an attractive ornamental plant due to its decorative leaves and cheerful flowers.

Begonia tenella has dark green, glossy leaves with slightly toothed or wavy edges. The flowers can be white, pink, or red, depending on the variety, and appear from spring until late autumn. This plant has a compact growth and can reach a height of about 30 cm.

Care:

1. Light: Begonia tenella prefers bright places but protected from direct sunlight. Filtered light or partial shade are ideal for this plant.

2. Watering: The plant needs regular watering, but it is important to avoid overwatering the soil. Let the soil dry out a little between waterings.

3. Temperature and humidity: Begonia tenella prefers moderate temperatures, between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. It does not tolerate low temperatures or cold drafts. High humidity is beneficial, so a humidifier or placing the plant near other plants can help create a suitable microclimate.

4. Soil: A well-drained soil rich in organic matter is ideal.

5. Fertilizing: Fertilize begonia tenella once a month during the active growing period (spring-summer) with a balanced fertilizer, diluted to half the concentration recommended on the package.

6. Pruning: Occasional pruning of branches that wilt or yellow helps maintain an aesthetic appearance of the plant and stimulates the growth of new leaves and flowers.
