Just our little begonia

We found it at our local Home Depot and thought we could give it a good home. Now it is suspended from a post on our patio. With frequent watering and lots of sunlight it seems to be thriving. Comments welcome and I hope you enjoy.

Thank you very much Sylvia for looking in and for the bit of advice. I appreciate it. Getting some photos that I really liked proved to be more difficult than I thought it would be at first. My first attempt was to simply hand hold the camera and shoot from some different angles. But most of these did not have the sharpness that I was looking for. Finally, I set up a piece of black felt as background, mounted the camera on the tripod, and used the self timer. Then I got these images and others that were satisfactory.
