Thanks for the information. Last year, I had B. listada and it looked great until one day it had no roots attached and dropped dead. I had bad luck with Iron Cross and Fireflush too. I'm not expecting more from this one but maybe with the pebble tray I'll have better luck.

I don't have a name for 4:43 or even a guess yet. This was one of three and of course I took the one with the best markings. The other two had more sporadic markings making me think of Last Laugh which hasn't grown on me.
And really, $10 isn't overpriced for a begonia around here, if you don't grab it when you see it, chances are you might not see it again. I think that one will recover outside this summer.
