What is the name of the perennial that looks like a dragon wing, and where can I get some?
I started with 9 Dragon Wings last Spring and now i have around 250! They are doing great!! I keep them on my back porch which i covered with plastic and heated, I haven't let the temp drop under 50 degrees yet. If it gets lower I think I'll roll the cart inside for a while. :)
Perennial Dragon wing look-a-like
I'm not really sure which perennial you mean. My grandmother had some angel wing type begonias that grew around her porch in Kentucky that came back every year. My understanding was that they came back from seeds from the previous year. If I remember right, they came up mostly in the basement window wells and she'd move them, but I could be mistaken.
There is a perennial Begonia, hardy to zone 6, although some report they are hardy to your zone. The plant has green leaves, with the undersides a deep red color. The blossoms are pale pink. Here is the link:

Here is a photo if my own, a two year old plant grown from a small cutting. It has proven such a nice addition to my shade garden, growing with virtually no care at all.
