It's not a great pic, but it looks like a Begonia Rex, and specific cultivar is called "Dewdrop". The attached pic is an example for comparison.

I don't understand why everyone is calling this plant a begonia. When it flowers (which should be now), you'll see it's a variety of coral bell I believe this one has teeny white flowers held on tall wire-like stems above the base, a perennial plant that does well in light shade and can be separated after a few years and after several plants start at the crown. ENJOY them.

Looks like an angel wing begonia. Not winter hardy outside. Makes a beautiful plant and if allowed to climb and twine will cover a canopy.
Enjoy.

Coral Bells (heuchera). Our daughter gave us 4 of these plants for our 35th wedding anniversary 5 years ago which we still have. Since coral is the 35th anniversary gift we thought these plants were very appropriate and thoughtful for the occasion. We moved them from Maryland to Tennessee and they made the trip wonderful when we relocated for retirement 4 yrs ago.

RE: What Is This Plant?
I believe it is a type of coral bells...should get white or pink flowers on a long stalk mid summer. Hope that helps!

RE: What Is This Plant?
It DEFINITELY is a palace purple heuchera (hew-ke-ra), officially Heuchera Micrantha. It grows in sun to partial shade, likes rich, well-drained soil, and you may want to mulch it in the winter to prevent the ground from heaving due to freezing and thawing (I don't mulch mine). There are several other varieties such as coralbells, chocolate ruffles, pewter veil and ruby veil. It is NOT a begonia. I repeat, it is NOT a begonia!! Marilyn from Wisconsin

Hallo Lisa
I am sure your plant is a Begonia Rex, it is grown for the beautiful foliage, if you are lucky you will get some small white flowers but they are nothing like it's more glamorous relatives.

Hallo Tina I'm pretty sure your plant is a Begonia Rex grown for the lovely foliage. Sometimes you may get tiny white flowers but they are nothing like the flamboyant Begonias! Regards Polly from wet and very windy UK - is it July or March?

RE: What Is This Plant?
I have one and I was told it was called a giant begonia. It sure does get big. My sister's was almost 4 ft tall last summer. I left mine out in the winter and I thought it was a goner, but it came back this summer.

RE: What Is This Plant?
I used to work at a greenhouse. I don't think it's a begonia. They are way darker, and uglier than that plant on your picture. It may however be a different type of begonia lol. I remember asking my supervisor about that plant on your picture cause they looked like miniature maple trees. All I know is they have a messed up name. I only worked there for a couple months so I don't remember.

I agree its Heuchera (hoo-ker-ah) I googled Heuchera, diablo ninebark ,beefsteak begonia. Judging by how they all look it looks like Heuchera. I know nothing about plants at all..

That is a Heuchera (hoo-ker-ah). They like dry shade and look really great when combined with hostas, etc.

I think it might be what we used to call a beefsteak begonia. It should get a begonia flower on it soon if it is.
