Hey Kill, that dark leaf cane (or shrub) is Lynda Dawn. Looks great in summer but starting in late August it came down with the worst case of mildew I ever saw. Mallet begonias are notorious for getting mildew when the nights start getting cooler. It must have something to do with their Philippine heritage.

Here is my big Sinbad five years ago. It is another Mallet type but it makes a great summer container plant.
