Yes, you have jogged my memory...i was thinking elephant's ear..but it is Angel Wing..lol. These things can become huge and their blossom looks like rose crystal. One of my favourite begonias.

Yes it is a Cane. A neighbor has one that she brings out onto her front porch for the summer. It is as tall as I am.

I must admit i hadn't realised that it might get as big as that, too big for showing i think. Maybe keep it outside the greenhouse.

Purchased these from ebay, they were labeled as "Spotted Angel Wings" I had an observation from the expert Terry Tasker who very kindly informed me that this plant is B. Lucerna.
