Signs of Cold Stress in Tuberous begonia

Symptoms

Tuberous begonia thrives in warmth and cannot withstand cold. It flourishes best when temperatures exceed 60℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 40℉, foliage may lose its vibrant color. Following frost damage, leaves progressively turn brown or black, and signs like wilting and drooping might appear.

Solutions

Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm setting for protection against cold. Position the plant near a south-facing window to ensure sufficient light exposure. Furthermore, avoid placing it close to heating units or air conditioning vents to prevent excessive air dryness.
