Nice plants! Sorry I can't help much with names but here's a couple more 'no ID's' from Nepal;












The 2nd, 3rd and 4th are all the same species but different ages and orientation to the Sun.

Shawn,
As far as I can recognize them, plants in pic 1 and 5 are Begonia masoniana 'Iron Cross'. I have two pots in my garden and they are quite tough begonias to start with.

Fishoman,

I think your first few picts are colocasia rather than begonia. And cpnut, thanks for you ch pict. Shawn, do you think the tiny little green plant above the begonia flower is a lyco? Am curious abt that little plant.

Looks like Begonia decora. The common ones in CH are decora, venusta, pavonina. They do hybridise, so you get introgressive hybrids as well.

KK, I have the one in the 3rd pic. Do you have the species name? TIA! It grows quite huge leaves if not wrong?
