I inherited a plant that looks like this:

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

Hi Andrew,

I'm sure that isn't a begonia. I thought it might be some sort o Iresine, but I don't think so as their colors are more vairable.
