Rescued this little guy from a coworker. He was almost dead and is now flourishing.

Successful plant rehab is the best!

That’s a beautiful Rex- Begonia! I almost killed mine. But man when they flourish, they sure are beautiful!

Looks great! I’ve had a few of mine die off/go dormant over winter and then come back so now I never give up on a Rex Begonia!

What is this? It looks like a nerve plant but I haven’t seen them in this colour.

It is a Rex Begonia. They do look a little like nerve plants! My experience with this begonia has been all over the place. They are slightly temperamental, but beautiful none the less!
