A Little Surprise!

I was surprised the other day to find that a plant that popped up in last years multi pot planter from the nursery had bloomed. I have been watching it and as it filled out, I said it was a begonia. I was right!
And it turned out to be a white begonia and I was only to save the pink begonias from last year. This one stayed outside through the whole winter and I'm very amazed that it survived. The plant had died back with nothing above the soil. I had brought the pink begonias inside to make sure they survived.
What is your favorite color of begonias?

I'm not much for flowers. Though I do like vibrant colors and lovely sents. We don't really want real flowers, as my husband's afraid they'd attract to many bees to our house.

That is wonderful and such a pretty white flower. For me, it would be purple begonias,
