Hi mamamamo; I'm not absolutely sure! It looks like the beefsteak begonia I remember. Though it has been a number of years since I've seen one (About 30 of them, but I'm not counting) I've been trying to locate one myself for the longest time, but haven't seen them around at all. I'm sure you'll get and ID shortly as we have many folks in the know here. Very nice plant BTW!!!

Hi Philofan, different from your place, it's quite a kind of rare or unusual plant here, so most of my friends usually ask for a pup from my small clumps I have had. That why I have to got some more (^_~)

Here's my recipe, from my Mom of course. I'm guessing at the amounts, cuz I just do it my taste and consistency, but lets say you're doing a dozen eggs: Miracle Whip, not mayo: 3/4 to a cup (that's a guess, start small, you can always add more) Finely chopped sweet pickles: 2 tablespoons A little of the pickle juice: 1 tablespoon Just a small squirt of yellow mustard: 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Sugar: 2 teaspoons to start From here it's just how sweet you like it, and use the type of pickles you like the best. This is the same "sauce" my Mom used for potato salad too, only she added celery seed to the mixture. Hope you like.

It's not 'Bela' as that is a mophead. Not sure you will get a for-sure ID as there are so many blue lacecaps and they look very similar. And the coloring can be so variable depending on where/how it was grown. I could make some suggestions but I'd like to wait to see what color the fertile (interior) flowers will develop as they mature. Offhand, I'd go with the KW cultivar 'Blueberries and Cream' as offering the closest resemblance in that product line.
