This a botanical Begonia, part of a large batch, which we are working on the correct names and descriptions. As soon as they are named correctly, they move up to a higher price category. For now, we can offer them for this special introduction price. If you buy it now, we will email you the correct botanical name and cultivar, when we got it.
We have developed a safe, special packaging for Begonia. We wrap the roots in moist sphagnum and the root ball is placed in plastic bag and then wrapped with foil. The whole plant is then placed in a large plastic cup and the plant is secured in place with toothpicks. Then we close the lid and tape it shut. We have tested this extensively over 6 months and this way the plant travels safe easy for over 3 weeks. On receiving check your plant for rotten or mushy leaves and trim them if any. Then soak the whole plant in water for 12 hours, making sure the water temperature stays within 24-32℃ (75-90℉). Then pot it in a mix of 2/3 of potting soil and 1/3 perlite. Water it thoroughly and let run off. Lastly, place your potted Begonia in an enclosed humid environment (a container covered by plastic wrap) in indirect sunlight. Keep it there for 7-14 days. Make sure the substrate is always saturated with water, but no water is standing in the pot. In about two weeks you have a healthy plant ready to adorn your home.
