Those kinds of plants are generally pretty rewarding. :-)

Hi there Ten,
I looked up Angel Wing to see what it looked like, didn't realize
how many different kinds there
are? I like them for their leaves, see attachment for a picture of my fave
"Iron Cross" which I almost killed.
Bringing it back in the g/h. Wondering if they can be propagated in water?
Cheers Wendy

Wendy, thanks for reminding me that now I have a GH, I want to grow a
couple begonias again - had a collection of over thirty different ones
years ago, but the orchids slowly pushed them out. Had a piece of an angel
wing handed down from a friend's great-grandma which I dearly loved - big
rubbery silver-spotted leaves; I grew an almost bonsai-like forest of it
about 16" high in a 14" wide shallow pan. I miss it!
