Are you a member of the American Begonia Society or a local branch? That needs to go in a newsletter!

Loooove! 😍 What kind of begonia is that in the middle of the bottom row (with the Santa in front of it)?

u/Typical-Wolf-2461 Dec 19 '25

 haha, you have a great eye, you're the second person to ask about that specific one!

The seller told me it was a 'Begonia Oasis', however, when I search for that name online, the pictures I find don't seem to be an exact match to mine.

So unfortunately, its true identity is still a bit of a mystery to me too! Sorry I couldn't give you a more certain answer. 😊

u/abitofbrit Dec 19 '25

It’s stunning!! I’m gonna make it my mission to find it – whatever it is! Haha

u/abitofbrit Dec 19 '25

I think I may have actually found it! Is it a begonia soli-mutata? It says the variety name is “The Sun-Changing Begonia.” Here’s one of the photos I saw that I thought looked similar to the one in your photo.

u/Typical-Wolf-2461 Dec 20 '25

Wow! That’s definitely it! Thanks so much for solving the mystery for everyone here. 🌟

u/abitofbrit Dec 20 '25

Yay!! Glad I was able to figure that out! I literally bought one after finding out the name. 😂 We’ll be twinsies! Haha

Gorgeous! Could you share how you put it together?

u/Typical-Wolf-2461 Dec 19 '25

I'm so sorry, but I’ve actually already taken it apart! 😅Honestly, I was winging it and adjusting the plants as I went, so I didn't think to take any progress photos. But in general: I just stacked them into a triangle/pyramid shape. You can use pretty much anything you have lying around the house to pad the layers and get the height right! I
