i want confirmation that these are cystoliths on my new rex begonia vine (cissus discolor) leaves.  
the white spots are pieces of plastic that somehow got on the one leaf!  
They’re only on new leaves on my cutting and my mother plant.

Yep, those are cystoliths! Totally normal for Cissus discolor—especially on new leaves. Nothing to worry about, and your plant looks amazing!
