Hi Jnette,
Did your Angel Wing Begonia have small silver dots on the leaves? Mine did. The one pictured grows pretty fast. Too fast for my windows.

The seedlings, yes they are all my crosses. Below are 5 seedlings that bloomed last year. The seeds were harvested from the same pod. There are so many generations of genes that you never know what you will get. That is what makes it so addictive. I sold all but the 1st, the 3rd, and the 4th. I want to see if they will be worth naming and registering. They are from 2009. Two more from the same pod didn't bloom due to being too crowded. Since I moved them they will bloom this year.

My main goal is to produce the "perfect" daylily or iris that is different. I have to cull and those I sell.
