Begonias are amongst the easiest plants to grow at home due to their low light requirement. When growing Begonia near the window, remember to turn the plant weekly so they grow proportionately towards the light. Begonia does best in shade or in places where morning or evening sun hits them. Good drainage is required to grow Begonia. Here in Singapore, its ideal to grow them in a shallow layer of small pumice stones with the rhizomes half embedded within the media. They also grow very well in self watering pot when grown indoor.
