Begonia sutherlandii, commonly known as Sutherland's Begonia, is a tuberous geophyte native to subtropical regions. It belongs to the family Begoniaceae and the genus Begonia. This plant is known for its attractive foliage and bright orange flowers. It undergoes a dormancy period during the winter months.
Begonia sutherlandii thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers moderate temperatures. It requires high humidity and should be kept evenly moist. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. During its dormancy period, reduce watering and allow the plant to rest.
تربة
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil that retains moisture but does not become waterlogged. A mix of peat, perlite, and potting soil works well. Ensure the soil is rich in organic matter to support its nutrient needs.
سماد
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season. Reduce or stop fertilizing during the dormancy period.
إعادة السمعة
Repot Begonia sutherlandii every 1-2 years or when it outgrows its pot. Repot in the spring before the growing season begins. Use fresh, well-draining soil and a slightly larger pot.
الانتشار
Propagate by dividing tubers or taking stem cuttings. The best time to propagate is in the spring. Ensure the cuttings or tubers are planted in moist, well-draining soil and kept in a warm, humid environment until established.
تشذيب
Prune to remove dead or damaged leaves and to shape the plant. Pruning can be done throughout the growing season. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to avoid damaging the plant.
تسمم
Begonia sutherlandii is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalates, which can cause irritation and swelling in the mouth and throat. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
