I don’t know, but she’s pretty!

#### MissMonNic replied on 2025-09-14

Haha! Thank you! We have the same rational which is how I ended up with a plant I can’t identify 😂 she was too pretty to leave, whatever she is

### lyssxgardens commented on 2025-09-14

it almost looks like a begonia, do you see any new growth??

#### MissMonNic replied on 2025-09-14

It is a begonia, I’m hoping to find out exactly what type of begonia. It has 1 little new leaf

### MissMonNic commented on 2025-09-14

The newest leaf

Could also be a variegated snow capped begonia? if not a variegated maculata but beautiful nonetheless 😍

#### MissMonNic replied on 2025-09-16

It looks more similar to snow capped than maculata to me!

#### MissMonNic replied on 2025-09-17

I looked it up \& im pretty sure its a variegated snow capped. Thanks for your help!

#### Cici replied on 2025-09-20

I agree, no problem! absolutely stunning

Variegated snow cap begonia
