In the spring let’s use a fertilizer every 15-20 days, melting it in the water which we use to irrigate; we can choose a fertilizer for flowering plants or green plants, rich with nitrogen and potassium to favour a balanced development of the new vegetation. Otherwise we can, if we want to, use a slow release fertilizer, to add to the soil, every 3-4 months.
Care Begonia sutherlandii
The Begonia sutherlandii develops bulbs or tubers. This plant in the summer assumes a orangeyellow colouring; it is small in size and can reach 50 cm high. It keeps its leaves in the winter. The ramifications of these plants tend to develop downwards.
Irrigation Begonia sutherlandii
To avoid that a scarce drainage could favour the development of fungal diseases, let's remember to avoid leaving water in the saucer. These plants favour quite regular watering, usually 2-3 glasses of water ; we advise in any case to irrigate every 1-2 weeks , when the soil is dry.

Adversity Begonia sutherlandii
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.
Substrate Begonia sutherlandii
These plants need to be grown in a soil which isn’t too drained. Every 2-3 years we should change the soil and place the plant in a larger container.
