I have a Begonia Listada and I'm concerned about its health. I'm not sure if I'm taking care of it properly, especially with its light requirements and a minor damage I caused. Any tips or advice would be super helpful!

A picture would really help to see how your Begonia Listada is doing! Also, it's best to keep it in mostly shade, as too much direct sunlight can harm it. If you notice holes in the leaves, make sure to check for any pests or if it's getting too much water. Let us know if you have any photos you can share!

Thanks for your help!

Make sure it's mostly in shade to thrive! I did notice some holes forming when I first had mine, and it was due to a little mishap. If you happen to have small cracks or breaks in the leaves, don’t worry too much unless it spreads. Just be gentle with it!

g4rdenFreak99: That’s exactly what happened! I dropped it and a little edge snapped off ?. Thanks so much for the reassurance!
