I bought this a while ago, a lot of the flowers have dropped off now. It was covered in flowers at first. I spotted it in the local garden centre, but i have seen glowing embers mentioned in the begonia society booklet.

A double bonus here with lovely foliage and such pretty flowers.

The flowers remind me of Sutherlandii, but i prefer the foliage of this one.
I shall try to get some cuttings, and see how it does next year - but i'm sure this is one to try and keep. Seems it will stand the sun better than the double tuberous begonias.
