Brighter and shinier than "Carnon Raspberry", which has a coarser texture to it's leaves.
They have both grown well outside during the summer, but 'Raspberry Swirl' developed some yellowish tinges in the leaf by autumn, which reduced the impact of the pink colour.
Raised in 1982 by L.Woodriff who crossed a Rex Group Begonia with B.hemsleyana, which has produced
the jagged , almost palmate leaf outline.
