My sister wanted to know the name of this begonia orphan that magically sprang up in her yard.

Flower are light pink. The leaves have little hairs on the edges.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Billy Rae

RE: What begonia is this?

Bronze leaf wax begonia (B. semperflorens). There are many varieties of semperflorens so cannot pin a name on this (check out T&M and Park Seed for their varieties). Cucullata and fischeri (a parent of wax begonias?) is very easy to grow from seed and reseeds readily.
