Begonia guaduensis is a versatile species native to the tropical regions of Central and South America, including countries such as Costa Rica, Colombia, and Brazil. This scrambling shrub exhibits a climbing habit, often found in wet tropical biomes. Its foliage is typically green, with leaves that may vary in size and shape, contributing to its ornamental appeal. The plant produces delicate white to pink flowers, adding subtle beauty to its more simple foliage.

Native to: Central and South America, particularly Costa Rica, Colombia, and Brazil.

Water: Maintain evenly moist soil, allowing the top layer to dry slightly between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the potting mix drains well. During winter months, reduce watering frequency to accommodate slower growth.

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can cause leaf scorch, while insufficient light may result in leggy growth. Placing the plant near an east or north-facing window is ideal.

Humidity: Thrives in high humidity environments, ideally between 50% and 70%. Regular misting, the use of a humidifier, or placing the pot on a tray with water and pebbles can help maintain adequate humidity levels.

Temperature: Favors warm indoor temperatures ranging from 18°C to 24°C. Protect the plant from drafts and sudden temperature fluctuations. Avoid exposing it to temperatures below 15°C, as it is sensitive to cold.
