Hi everyone! I'm not a huge begonia nut, but I have this growing obsession with cane-like begonias. I picked up a few in March of this year when USF had their yearly Begonia Bash. One was "Black Jack", and when I was watering the other day I noticed it was starting to bloom! Gotta love living in Florida. Plants have a weird schedule here - I never know what they're gonna do! By the way, this begonia has now gotten almost as tall as me - it's nearly five feet tall and is making new ones out the side.
