Pl. check comparative images in efi at Begonia


Does not seem to match with any comparative images at Begonia


Pl. check Begonia wattii as based on pdf available from link under thread Begonia in Northeast India


As you have recently published Monograph of North East Indian species, may I request you to pl. assist in the id of this Begonia.


I believe this plant is Begonia annulata K.Koch, the leaves don’t always have the “ring “ marking present.


B. palmata


Thanks, … But … confirmed it to be Begonia annulata


… is probably correct on this. I am now seeing this as palmata after looking at it again this morning.

This has 2 stigmas, so is in sect. Platycentrum, probably one of the subspecies of B. palmata.

Begonia palmata D.Don ??


yes … its Begonia palmata..


I think more likely to be (as per images and details herein):
https://efloraofindia.com/2019/05/22/begonia-difformis-1/


I think this is nearer to the very variable B. palmata, as far as I can tell from the photos.

I think I have suggested B. palmata !
