identify a possible begonia
I inherited a plant that looks like this:
http://www-mslmb.niddk.nih.gov/ronni...es/begonia.htm The photographer of this image identifies it as a Begonia. However, I'm suspicious, because I scanned through 20 pages of google image search for "begonia", and none of the other images look like this. So can anyone on this list help me? Is this really a begonia, and if so, what variety? Or is it something else? Thanks, Andrew -- I've decided to go back to school. Kindergarden. |

Hi Andrew, I'm sure that isn't a begonia. I thought it might be some sort of Iresine, but I don't think so as their colors are more vairable. http://www.toptropicals.com/cgi-bin/...atalog/cat.cgi Did you find out what it is? Newt |
Looks like a fittonia to me:
