So many options with begonia. With the spots being more Reddish, maybe a 'Cracklin Rose'

it might just be the light reflecting, theyre all white and shiny irl - ill google and look into it tho!

Oh interesting they really look pink to me. Maculata are like the most common white spotted, but there are several, and I'm more of a rex girly

I have the same one…when I bought it my local greenhouse said it was called angel wings…I’m not familiar with them either so I don’t know if that’s what it is called or if that’s just the type of begonia it is…she is one of my favorite plants

pretty!!

Many people refer to Maculata as angel wings. And that’s what it looks like to me also.

### Rebecca 🍓 commented on 2025-02-11

I think the maculata’s dots are bigger…they do look similar though…the small pot is labeled maculata and the larger pot is labeled lucerna which looks more like mine to me but I could be wrong …with so many begonia varieties it’s hard to tell
