Swipe for the “before” photo 🥺

I ordered this SOP online and it arrived in gorgeous condition on the 25th of April. This is how it looks like today (May 20).

When in arrived, it was packaged super well and thoroughly watered, so I haven’t watered it at all.

It’s getting lots of light (it’s in my sun room with my Bird of Paradise, which is doing well). I haven’t been messing with it at all, except to sadly remove dying bits and pieces.

I’m so sad. What am I doing wrong? How can I fix this?

Any advice will be much appreciated. This is my first String of Pearls 🙏

Hi! I was given this begonia last month in bad shape (really leggy and crispy), so I put it next to my large window in my bathroom. It’s been doing well growing upwards with pretty leaves, but surprisingly, the leggy stems are growing what looks like leaves?

I was so gearing up to chopping and propagating, but this is getting me excited!! Is this a normal occurrence?

This is my first begonia, and it’s such a cool and interesting plant!
