😬 Maybe it’s getting too much sun? 🤷🏼‍♀️

@bluefox23 Maybe. The label says bright but indirect, which I'm pretty sure it's getting. I only put it in the window for the photo

Is it under/over watered? It certainly doesn’t look happy 😔 I hope someone has some good advice

@bluefox23 Thanks. I've contacted the company who sold it to me (luckily they're small and independent so hopefully will get back to me soon).

Do the leaves feel soft and wilted or rough? And is the soil wet or just moist? ☺

@ublaszko the soil just feels moist and the leaves do feel a bit soft. There are visibible markings on the leaves which show where i have sprayed it, perhaps those are preventing photosynthesis

Begonia is looking a bit unhealthy. I spray it everynight and water it often. Do you think repotting it will stress it out?
