Awhile back I posted a picture of a beautiful Fire Flush begonia that I ended up with leaves from. I planted those two leaves with the chunk of the rhizome?(I'm not sure what that big bulky thing at the base of the rex begonias is called) into a deep vase hoping the humidity of the vase would keep them alive.

Well the leaves slowly died off and I was disappointed. I ignored the vase, being too busy to clean it out, and look what I found two days ago!! New growth coming from the base of the leaves!!
