That's quite a different begonia look.

Yes, i wouldn't have guessed it was a Begonia. I saw the seeds on the internet, described as "The Palm Begonia" and thought it would be interesting to see what came from the seeds. I've put them in the greenhouse with this years cuttings, which i try to keep going until as near to Christmas as they will go by keeping that greenhouse at 52F, but with lack of light the cuttings do start to yellow before we get there. Once they do start to go yellow i lower the temperature to 40F and let them go down for the winter. I don't know yet what will happen with these, it will be interesting to see.
