Ellianor,

I am partial to leaving the leaves on. It needs to absorb light and produce food, the plant will shed them when it is ready. Potting up is a good idea. It is having a hard time getting enough water to keep itself growing in the summer heat.

And that Happy stressed gardener in S. FL is right, a bright window until the weather cools a little would help. B. semperflorins can handle some warm weather, but nothing will prosper when the temps are over 90.

This is not a begonia....
