Habitat : Wild This could be B. beddomei. This is a poorly known species which has never been photographed. It is unusual in the section (Platycentrum) in have a tuberous habit and no cauline leaves. Very interesting!
Begonia picta ? Looking at the image quality it is difficult to decide but may be correct ! Dr. Marc has suggested as B. beddomei which may be correct but not sufficient information to verify !
