🌿 Begonia ‘Lunar Mist’ Care Guide

The Begonia Lunar Mist is a magical foliage begonia known for its soft silvery leaves, pale mint undertones, and delicate speckling that looks like moonlight scattered across the surface. Lightweight, ethereal, and full of gentle shimmer, it’s perfect for anyone who loves begonia drama with a softer, celestial twist.

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light

• Medium light is okay, but colours soften

• Avoid direct sun — delicate leaves scorch easily

💧 Water

• Keep soil lightly and evenly moist

• Allow the top 1–2 cm to dry between waterings

• Use a light, airy mix (peat/coco coir + perlite)

• Begonias are sensitive to overwatering — avoid sogginess

🌫️ Humidity

• Loves high humidity (60–80%)

• Ideal for plant cabinets, bathrooms, or grouped displays

• Low humidity = crispy leaf edges

🌡️ Temperature

• Ideal range: 18–26°C

• Keep away from drafts and cold windows

• Avoid temps below 15°C

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4 weeks during spring and summer

• Use a gentle, diluted fertilizer

• No feeding in winter

🌱 Quick Tips

• Avoid getting water directly on the leaves

• Great for shelves, cabinets, and soft-toned plant groupings

• Pet caution: not safe for cats or dogs

• A little fussy, but unforgettable when happy
