Can begonias be grown from seed?

💡 Our Advice
Yes, begonias can be grown from seed, but they are usually propagated from stem or leaf cuttings. To grow begonias from seed, sow the seeds in a well-draining soil mix and keep them moist but not wet. Cover the container with plastic wrap to help maintain humidity, and keep it in a warm, bright location, but out of direct sunlight. Once the seeds have germinated and the plants have developed several leaves, they can be transplanted into individual containers.
