Begonia of the Week #4

There are several rex begonia hybrids that look very similar, but I think this one is B. 'Harmony's Red Robin 2'. Impossible to capture in a photo is the sparkle that you find in begonia leaves, especially in rexes. Up close, this looks like the metallic red paint used on cars. Botanists speculate that it may be a device to reflect more light to the plant, since begonias are shade lovers and often grow on the jungle floor. It's magical, whatever it is.
