I’m a big fan of this begonia. It’s amazing 🤩

This shot, while not terribly well-composed, gives an idea of the gloss on the leaves... #foliagefriday

Beautiful black.

Wow! It’s like black satin 🖤

Begonia Love ❤️ I’m getting one of them when I get my backyard back . I get what you mean by a little worse for ware.

With all your growing space @docthrill why not look for something bigger with black leaves, like "Black Fang," "Black Taffeta" or "Hallow's Eve"?

I haven’t seen any of those at our nurseries, just Black Mamba

They're very much a mail-order-only quest @docthrill -- Steve's Leaves offers "Hallow's Eve" periodically and they sell out before you can say Jake Rabinowitz lol

Very cool!

I never tire of zooming in on the individual leaves of this #begoniasaurusrex #foliagefriday

You have some lovely begonias. The kind my Grannie had when I was growing up. 🤍

2 pieces of a "Black Mamba" begonia rooting in water after they fell off the main plant as I was unpacking it. #black #interestingfoliage #darkfoliage

I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE!!
