splashing color in my container garden

The Crackling Fire Orange Begonia looks like a Crackling Fire in my container garden.

Crackling Fire Orange!

I recently visited a local nursery which happened to have a "Crackling Fire" in a large hanging pot. Sadly there was no label, and the owner of the place had mistaken it for an "Angel Wing" Begonia. This new Begonia plant though is far more dramatic, more sun tolerant, and far more prolific with flowers. The starter plant was very well packed and quickly delivered. I set it in a 4" pot and within a week it had grown dramatically and will soon be as majestic as the first one I ever saw and fell in love with. Thanks for this unusual and spectacular plant.
