Avoid harsh, direct sun, which can scorch the leaves. Watering: Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil feel dry — Begonia 'Corallina' likes to dry out a bit between waterings and dislikes soggy soil. Water less in winter. Humidity: Enjoys higher humidity — dry air can brown the leaf edges, so a pebble tray or humidifier helps. Temperature: Typical room temperatures (about 65–80°F). Keep it away from cold drafts and hot, dry vents. Soil: A good, well-draining potting mix in a pot with a drainage hole. Fertilizer: Feed lightly with a balanced houseplant fertilizer in spring and summer; pause in winter. Good to know: Water at the soil (not the leaves) and give good airflow to avoid powdery mildew; bright indirect light keeps colors strong. Care tip: Give it the right light and consistent watering, and Begonia 'Corallina' stays full and healthy. Best Display Spots A bright spot with indirect light: where it can really thrive.
