Email to 'Blooming Bert' of the gazette fame would probably be your best solution..

I thought I saw a hell of alot of Begonias while I was there! Every balcony at Patong Villa has Begonia and it looks nice, there are even different colours!! (I know thats a bit girly but I am trying to get into BattleCat and Boogs good books by showing more of my flower recognition skills here!)
There was one hotel I saw in Kata that was just one big Begonia but can't remember it's name.......Probably Hotel Begonia! I am sure if approached they would let you take some cuttings Wellington. All the best, P. Thrower, Blue Peter Garden

This was brilliant. Ten points for effort; getting there slowly; the problem is the pic is the wrong sort of Begonia; these are more the size of Busy Lizzies. BLs do not seem to do well here ,and attract a lovely 4 inch green caterpillar who munches non stop and drops little pellets under the plants so at least you can catch the b*ggers. "Tuberous" is the operative word,which is stumping everybody; they are larger plants ,bigger flowers ; I had them in hanging baskets outside my shop in Surrey, and they dangle down to about three feet. That's what I am searching for.

Reminds me of the Steve Martin Movie.....sorry forgot which one Kathleen Turner's character: on seeing the servants waving a fond welcome to her from the beautiful blooming colorful balcony of her new home after being just married to Steve Martins character............"Oh my God honey...Who are those A$$holes on the balcony" Steve Martin's character:in a very sincere but fond voice "they're not assholes honey....they're Azaleas"
