Care
Lighting Requirement:
Begonia Rex 'Red Kiss' flourishes in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, the leaves may lose some of their vibrant color. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the delicate foliage and cause the colors to fade.
Watering & Humidity:
Water the plant when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry, ensuring the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging and root rot. Begonia Rex 'Red Kiss' thrives in moderate to high humidity, so regular misting or using a humidity tray is beneficial for maintaining healthy growth and vibrant leaves.
Temperature Requirement:
The ideal temperature range for Begonia Rex 'Red Kiss' is between 60-75°F (16-24°C). Keep the plant away from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C) to ensure it remains healthy and continues to display its stunning coloration.
