Jackie,

Those are some of my biggest begonias. C. King and Queen used to be the biggest but they took a beating from frost damage and staying in the garage two winters ago. Hopefully keeping them in a warmer place this winter and downsizing on the pot will encourage them to return to their former glory. Nelumbiifolia has some of the biggest leaves but the rhizomes aren't that big. Hmmm.

Here is a tall begonia at the Southeastern Flower Show. This is from Hills and Dales Estate (the Callaway home - I wonder if this is the same people that started Callaway Gardens?).
