I am not sure what that begonia is - the closest I can come to it from looking at pictures on line is 'Mary Ann Flunker'. I bought this at a Mom and Pop nursery on one of the keys coming back from Key West 7 years ago. This one gets about 2 feet tall.

Silvermist is a great begonia. Tom Ment is a nice small cane too.

Here is Silvermist from last year where it was in a very shady spot. Never bloomed last year but the foliage was stunning. It has recently begun to bloom this year but the foliage is not as striking in sunnier conditions.
