Hap
Who am I?
Closer shot.
No one knows?
Hap, can you post a shot of the whole plant and give a few more details? The flowers are similar to 'Mrs. Fred T. Scripps' but without seeing the leaves and whole plant it's going to be tough to make a positive id.
Mrs. FTS gets roughly 4' high. So if yours is a shorter begonia, perhaps it's one of the B. luxurians hybrids such as 'Rudy's Luxurians' (akd Rudy's hybrid) or 'Stewart's Luxurians'
Both of those hybrids get rather tall as well.
nancy that looks like a cutting of mine possibly a chuck jaros

Cass.....Thanks.
Check your dmail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is so pretty .... is it a Begonia?
Lin
It sure is and 8' tall.
Hap
Love it! I have a couple of Begonias .... one Cane type that I've had for many years, but it doesn't grow up .... it wants to grow outward with long canes. Someone on here ID'd it as Angel Wing Begonia 'Benigo', but I'm still not sure that is what it is. I have another called 'Frosty' and one with plain green leaves .... can't remember what that name is without going and looking at the tag.
I love the look of some Begonia's .... so many different kinds and all so pretty.
Lin
Lin,
