It's a begonia, but I don't know which one.

Looks like a cultivar of Salvia splendens or a similar species. Can't really
tell from the detail posted, but compare to: http://www.packetseeds.com/acatalog/...er_Orange.html

Btw, it appears closest to the following cultivar:

Schmidt Brothers, Inc. (a) 806 Annuals: Salvia-Splendens - Bonfire Elite

Stunning intense orange colour and beautiful foliage. Next year may be a Salvia year for me
