It wasn't very hardy in my garden this year. It's alive and new shoots are just starting to grow.

Do you have this one? This is a very common shrubby begonia. Not sure what's it's variety is, though.

Begonia's in general are very common here. Most people make new plants from cuttings.
I don't know if it's the exact same type but it has this color flowers. I have a red one with gorgeous green shinny leaves, I hope it still lives.

The begonia above doesn't get very tall...not like some of the very tall Angel-Wing cane begonias.

The one I have (had) didn't get very tall. If it did survive, I will take some pictures .

I know many of the shrubby cane begonias are not hardy at all. Even this one in the basket is not a hardy Begonia.
