I found this sport today and like it too much...since I so want it to grow roots and live, it will probably rot. It is luminescent and is an unusual shade of red. The parent plant came tagged as a Rex Begonia. Lol.

Thanks, Kell. I just noticed the green speckled one in the front of Mother. Is that another sport?

I just checked and it is another sport. This morning I placed 2 begonia orders but now I may need to rethink them. If this plant is going to provide me with unique plants, to me that is, why pay for them? :) This second sport has luminescent silver on a dull green ground. This plant could make me a begoniaire!
