Water: Begonia 'Doublet Rose' thrives in humid environments and prefers consistent moisture, requiring weekly watering. Moderately drought-tolerant, it flourishes with high humidity, benefiting from regular misting to enhance growth and maintain its evergreen foliage throughout the year.

Fertilize: Begonia 'Doublet Rose' thrives with diluted fertilizers or a mix of compost and peat moss. Post-flowering, liquid fertilizer is recommended monthly, but avoid over-fertilization to protect leaves. In late fall and winter, limit fertilizer as growth slows during dormancy.

Pruning: Begonia 'Doublet Rose' showcases double blooms and vibrant foliage, thriving with proper care. Prune spent flowers and leggy stems between early to late spring to promote growth and enhance flowering. Use clean, sharp tools, pruning just above a leaf node to prevent disease.

Propagation: Begonia 'Doublet Rose' is propagated by sowing in a well-draining seed-starting mix, kept moist but not waterlogged. Sow seeds shallowly for light germination and cover for humidity. Place in bright, indirect sunlight with consistent warmth. After germination, remove cover and care for seedlings until ready to transplant.
