Ok, this is a wild growing begonia species from the Phliu waterfalls area in
Southern Thailand, Chanthaburi area. But I do not know the species name.
If anyone has a clue, pls let me know. Thanks.

All except the first one looks like begonia propinqua ....found on vertical banks on loamy soils in lowlands of Sarawak. Some are very dark and some emerald.
