I declined one and corrected the series name.
Rieger Begonia (Begonia x hiemalis 'Blitz')

When adding a new plant, pay particular attention to the trade and series notaion:
* An explanation of trade names and series names
Trade names are generally trademarked names that sellers use for marketing the plants. A plant with a trade name will always have a cultivar name (often a series of numbers and letter that don't spell anything). The tradename almost always includes a (tm) symbol. When you have a group of different but similar plants that have trade names, then you can group them by using Series.


(By the way Dave, in that last sentence, you have trade name as one word, my spellchecker highlighted that. Green Grin! )
