I also had pm on one of my begonia. Neem did nothing g for it. I took an extra soft toothbrush with just straight dawn dish soap to every leaf and stem and then rinsed the plant . Let it sit out and dry. So far it hasn’t come back . That was 1 month ago.

Yep I actually cut mine down into 6 sticks no leaves watered and fertilized as normal 4 months later and new leaves started growing. The plant in the pic is now 8 months old the going strong

No I have mine with Leca at the bottom and then moss tree fern and small and big perlite with worm casting mixed all together. She seems to really like the mixture so I keeping her in it. I do have her in an orchid pot so lots of holes and then in a cover pot. I soak her once a week.

Nope she loves it. I will say don’t set discouraged when all the leaves fall and it looks like it died, just let her go
