Thanks Allison. The plant in the picture is from a piece that got broke off of the pot and I tossed it out in a flower bed....LOL I thought it was dead. It has been growing there for 3 years now. I'll go look up yours and have a look see. Thanks again............Lauri

Lauri that looks like the ones you sent me..Is it???I will kill it I know...don't have luck growing them inside..

LOL you won't kill it...Set it in a sunny room or window and it will be fine. It may loose leaves but it will still be alive and ready to prune back and start next year...If it does die I have a lot more.just holler...............Lauri

Loretta did the ones I send you live !
I grow them outside well too in ground and pot but year round. But I also grow them inside. They love my kitchen window where they get lots of humdity. I think giving them humidity is one of the tricks !

Hi Allison...they are all living...but once I have them inside they die on me...no matter what special care I give them...

The ID is a Cane Begonia "Eldora". It is one of the largest and fastest growing begonia canes. If given the proper amount of light (light shade) and moderate humidity.......it will be a shrub in no time.
