Here is a closer view of the stems.....look just like a bamboo stem--no?
I do not keep the bare stems...

Now--IF you really wanted to--I bet you could cut the stems up in small sections
and pot them up as well. I think they would grow new plants....
Just watch the "nodes" on the stem--that is where new growths would come from.
Hope this helps....

Garry--I "get" that you may have some smaller version of an AW begonia.
I have never had a smaller kind--I DO know that ALL begonias grow from cuttings.
Can do them in water first--or just stick them in the soil.
I usually prefer the directly into the soil...Less transitional stress.....
