I have noticed a similar behaviour with other plants. Make a cutting and try to rejuvenate it. Your others look great in the pretty pots. I grow some Begonias, in the garden I must make photos. I have them since years, very reliable and pretty.<br />They probably would do even better if I would give them a little attention, poor things.<br />thanks for your comment. We had heavy rain for two days. I went to the regional gallery in Murwillumbah. I was not impressed with the paintings.Lavender and Vanilla Friends of the Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05403418150146893599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1055656544285175590.post-62355043597238075162010-07-28T22:42:20.932+08:002010-07-28T22:42:20.932+08:00Now I only have one hairy begonia with small yello...Now I only have one hairy begonia with small yellow flowers.

(no....Im so jealous with your begonia Stephanie....<br />(no.. Im just joking)<br />Really love your collection actually and hey!<br />Who said gardening is all perfect?<br />Im sure something will surely tend to mature and die and it may require you to replant again & again.<br /><br />My suggestion: Chances are they might loose the blush due to lack of sunlight?<br />I remember my watermelon begonia changed colours when in shade. Also another few types which I really not sure of their names - but one thing for sure, it really got to do with the lighting.<br /><br />Another thing is could it be that begonia is very matured? Do check if the stem is aged.<br />My black velvet begonia too behaved such, I had trimmed it and propagate it many more plantlets.<br />Or perhaps - a little feeding might boost the plant back its normal self?<br />Do watch out that if they are slowly dying - these might be the signs of old-age and they will just whither and die.<br />My wax begonia happened to behave just like that - a slow but a sure death. Thats why you need to keep at least two cuttings of begonia as spares - just in case something like this happens.James Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423981835876393119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1055656544285175590.post-13331622587444659552010-07-28T14:20:30.804+08:002010-07-28T14:20:30.804+08:00Steph, the one with the blush is a Rex Begonia.
