Kell, I think that that begonia you show at the top of the thread is b. 'Ramirez'? I kept thinking that it sure looks a lot like b. sharffeana that I have, I thought yours or mine were mis labeled, but upon further research, b. sharffeana is a parent to Ramirez! Cool!

So sad to loose Rudy Zeiesenhenne, what a wonderful contributor to the world of begonias. (He was the hybridizer of b. 'Ramirez')
