Someone shared this with me about using Photobucket. Have not tried it yet, but will copy and paste what they told me. It's a free service. They said.....

I have a photobucket account- store all my stuff there, then use their code to post the pics. Every picture you store there has it's own code and you just post it into the forum. If you want to post a full-size picture, just use the 'direct link' code and then use

Oh, I see in my 'preview' that after it says "and then use...." that a box shows up. So just click on my name and email me and I'll email the rest back to you. I even tried re-typing it in (versus copying it from friend) but it still showed up as a little box with a red x.

Hope that will help. Like I said, not tried it yet myself. If you don't post pic, you probably won't get much help. I tried explaining a plant once and everyone asked for a pic.

Good Luck !!

From photobucket use the html code and paste in msg for the photo to appear.

ok joined photobucket and uploaded the pic, it gave me 4 addresses so i posted all 4 , hope one works

Angel wing begonia, maybe 'Lois Burkes'? I won't argue if someone says different. ;o)

Al

I agree w/ Begonia, tho' don't know which. I will say it looks happy & very healthy from here, so keep doing what you're doing as to its care.

As to the Pix, yes, it worked on Photobucket (congratulations, I know it can be frustrating).

Not everyone knows what HTML is, so I'll keep it simple --

from Photobucket it's the THIRD LINE OF CODE to copy & paste in here, the Message area -- it'll look like gobbledy gook when it's been pasted, but if you proceed to the Preview area, it'll appear to you as the actual pic, then just click on 'Submit'.

Thank you all very much, Begonia would have never came to mind. your all great

This looks very, very much like one I have; it was my mothers', which I got upon her passing. When trying to ID it, the closest I came was a cane begonia, an old variety called 'Sophie Cecile'. It does get really tall if not pinched back. I have never seen it bloom.
Hope this helps.
