This Snail begonia is one of the most amazing plants I've ever seen..................and its mine. Big Grin
It was a freebie on the local site.
Hoping to split it into several plants, propagate it by leaf cuttings and generally, turn one plant into many. If I succeed I'll give them to Lily's Lettuce to sell for charity. I'm sure she'll be able to sell them.

I want a name for it but I can't call it Brian as that's my brother's name (when I'm being polite to him).
Any ideas?

Cargo for shortened escargot, or Pierre for its french side.
