More about Strawberry Begonia-

Strawberry begonias (Saxifraga Stolonifera) are eye-catching plants native to Asia.This low-growing beauty produces quantities of dark green, hairy leaves with silver veins. Each leaf also has a red underside and stems. As the plants mature, strawberry begonia sends out runners (stolons) that form tiny plantlets on the end of each one. These plantlets can be removed from the mother plant and potted up individually. Contrary to its name, strawberry begonia is neither a true begonia nor a strawberry; it does have fuzzy leaves like a begonia and runners like a strawberry, which is where it gets its name.
