Beautiful.

I must admit it could be better. I bought Sophie earlier this year. It looks a good strong plant. It won't make a show plant this year as i have had to use it as a stock plant to take cuttings and try to build up my stock of this one a bit. It looks as if it should be a good one though.
For a show plant this only has two blooms and one bloom is hiding the other, it should have been dressed and displayed better. I would have expected better from B&L, who are supposed to be Begonias experts.

Would be fantastic for just a home garden but can understand it's definitely not suitable for show.

I'm hoping it will make a show plant another year, fingers crossed.
