Begonia x hybrida 'Dawnal Meyer' (hybrid Begonia, cultivar: Dawnal Meyer)

This Begonia is a hybrid species of cane Begonia, originating from two hybrid parents.

Common Name
Cane Begonia, Dawnal Meyer Begonia

Origin
Begonias are native to tropical areas, but this cultivar itself originated in the US.

Light
Thrives in bright, indirect light, but will tolerate some shade.

Water
Keep the soil moist, but ensure good drainage and don't allow to sit in water. Water when the top inch of soil is dry, and reduce watering in winter.

Humidity
Average household humidity is fine for this plant, but make sure it's not too close to a radiator as this will dry it out too much!

Soil
Plant in fast draining, but moisture retentive soil. A mix with added bark or grit would be ideal. Repot once the plant and roots are crowding the pot.

Food
Feed 3-4 times throughout the growing season (usually May- September).

Temperature
Likes warmer temperatures above 20°C - don't keep somewhere where temperatures drop below 13°C in winter.

Pet-safe
No, this plant is toxic to pets and small humans.

Sprouts Top Tips
Water directly into the soil, or bottom-water - these Begonias don't like getting their leaves wet.
