Begonia (Rex Cultorum Group) 'Inca Flame' syn. Begonia rex 'Inca Flame'

This #beautifut #rex lost all but 2 leaves this winter but has returned to be beautiful once age. I grew this one from a single leaf last spring.

Stunning colour David 👌😎

It truly is @flof1952 have you tried #begonias before ?

I have a few that I plant out in summer with big orange flowers and boring green leaves David. I have a renewed interest seeing yours though now.

Beautiful colour. Love your begonias. 😍😍

Thank you Diane @hkyfvr they get the most attention out of all of my plants 😊

Always welcome David. I can understand why. 😍😍

Definitely my favorite exotic #begonia

Gorgeous!

My Inca Flame @lesliecole49 definitely different Inca Fire is totally red, no black. Maybe a little on the leaf patterns

Does the rex ever bloom or just a foliage plant?

Yes, there flowers usually open under there leaves @lesliecole49

One of my favorite #rex-begonia species red is my favorite color #foliagefriday

Here is what mine looked like @lesliecole49

I saw it in the encyclopedia listing when you told me what I have. You say 'looked' like, is this one that you sold?

Yes @lesliecole49 but I do have a small one that hasn’t matured yet

Propagating by stem in water probably the least productive way to propagate, only a few leaves to start. Still works though.

Only had one leaf to try with the Coin Leaf Peperomia, sprouted roots, but they've stayed only a few mm long and not grown anymore, not sure if to leave it or put it in soil?

Sticking the leaf in soil works pretty good with a smaller pot and a water bottle, with the top cut off, to use as a dome. A little greenhouse. Keep in a tray of water, filled at all times until you get new leaves. @hebelover

Thank you, job for this afternoon 🙏

You’re welcome Jason @hebelover

Nothing quite like this beautiful #begonia more people love this one the most out of all of our begonias.

Beautiful and #red #begonia you were right @emch not much of a Christmas Curl. But I did bring home a real Christmas Curl
