Hope I can get some ID's on some of these begonias

#1

#2

#3

#4

#5

this is the last one, I think LOL

any help would be appreciated

#3 looks like 'Royal Lustre'
#4 possibly Persian Brocade'
#5 may be 'Midnight Magic'

Have you checked the ABSASTRO site? While far from exhaustive, it is a great place to start.

thanks, I thought that # 4 may be persian brocade too, but my persian brocade looks different as I already have that one, though I almost lost it and when it came back it was quite different looking than it use to be, the leaves aren't as spotted as this one is. But who knows,

I'll check that site out, thanks

you don't know where I can find a photo of royal luster or ha? I didn't see it listed on that web site link


I found a midnight magic begonia picture, it does look really close to it doens't it.

The luster in this case is spelled lustre. British I suppose.

#1 looks like a dragon leaf . i have mine in the house right now as the 105 degree temp. outside was really taking a toll on it. kept it in the house all winter also.

Is that a name of a begonia? isn't dragon leaf a cane begonia? not sure, tis why I ask, this is a rysome type begonia in # 1 photo,

I know there's a dragon wing begonia. never heard of dragon leaf.
