Begonia Tamaya – Polka-Dot Bamboo Cane Begonia 🎋✨

Begonia Tamaya is a gorgeous cane-type begonia known for its wing-shaped, glossy green leaves speckled with silver polka dots and its graceful pink blooms that cascade from tall, bamboo-like stems. A stylish, upright grower, it brings a touch of elegance and charm to bright indoor spaces or shaded patios in summer.

Key Features:

✔ Striking silver-spotted foliage on upright canes
✔ Produces clusters of rosy-pink flowers
✔ Stylish bamboo-like stems – often grown as a small indoor tree
✔ Easy to prune and shape to your liking
✔ A beautiful focal point for bright corners or plant shelves

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light – too much direct sun can scorch leaves

• Watering: Water when the top 2–3cm of soil is dry – reduce watering in winter

• Humidity: Likes moderate humidity – mist occasionally or group with other plants

• Soil: Use a light, well-draining potting mix (add perlite for airflow)

• Feeding: Feed every 4 weeks in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertiliser

• Temperature: Keep in 15–25°C – avoid cold draughts

• Growth: Can grow quite tall – prune for a bushier shape and remove spent flowers

🌿 Tip: Rotate weekly to keep it growing upright, and stake if stems become top-heavy.
