In botany, the term "bud" refers to an embryonic shoot containing the growing stem tip surrounded by young leaves or flowers or both and frequently enclosed by bud scales. Bryophyllum and Begonia do have buds.

In plants such as Bryophyllum, the leaf supports development of a tiny shoot buds. They are known as epiphyllous buds. These buds may begin to form roots at their base. As these shoots break off from the original leaf, they fall onto the ground and take root.

Begonia could be propagated from leaf cuttings. Leave cuttings usually include a portion of the petiole (leaf stem). Begonia leaves can produce new plants not only from the petiole, but also from cuts made in the leaf veins.

Are Begonias succulents?

No, begonias are not succulents. They are a diverse group of flowering plants belonging to the family Begoniaceae, known for their ornamental leaves and flowers. Unlike succulents, which store water in their leaves or stems, begonias prefer a more humid environment and require regular watering to thrive.


Why are begonias now planted in Mendels garden and not peas?

Begonias are planted in Mendel's garden because they are often used in genetics studies as a model plant, similar to the peas Mendel originally used. Begonias are easier to grow and analyze in a shorter time frame compared to peas, making them more suitable for modern genetics research.


Do begonias need a lot of water?

Begonias prefer consistently moist soil, but not overly wet. Water them when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch and make sure to provide good drainage to prevent root rot. Adjust watering based on the specific needs of your begonia variety and growing conditions.


Plants similar to begonia which reproduce from leaves?

African violets are similar to begonias in that they can be propagated from leaves. By selecting healthy leaves and placing them in water or soil, new plantlets can grow from the leaf. Snake plants and jade plants are also examples of plants that can be propagated from leaves.


Begonia is a flower from where?

Begonia is a flowering plant from the Begoniaceae family, which is native to tropical and subtropical regions of Asia, Africa, and the Americas. They are popular for their colorful flowers and interesting foliage, making them a common choice for gardens and indoor plants.
