Begonia Spotlight - B. Masoniana & Its Variations

Some of my favorite rhizomatous begonias! The Iron Cross is very popular and here are some variations.

You use really fantastic descriptive language and do a wonderful job filming, so the plants really popped.

After killing my Begonia masoniana Iron Cross it’s been at the top of my Wishlist. I realise now that i overwatered it and when I get a new one I’ll definitely know better and keep it on the dry side. Thanks for sharing the other hybrids but I personally like the species iron Cross best.

Question for you, unrelated to your video, but about begonias and grow lights. I have two of the GE PAR38 full spectrum growlight bulb hanging over my begonias. I am worried that it's too intense for them. They are 2.5 feet above the top of their leaves, and the table five feet wide. Should I remove one or keep both lights?

If they give off a lot of heat it could slightly burn the leaves. Just keep an eye on how they react.
