This is a compass plant, they are native to my state and not tropical, they are fun to watch as their tops follow the sun.. it is facing west here at 12am in the morning, I utilize the native plants for shade giving for my tropicals, this one is above the hibiscus collection,, the tall thing in the oicture to the left is called showy evening primrose yellow, blooms at night, smells woonderful, and this one will have about 6000 seeds on it by october.. in the pods after a bloom, so I have been cutting them back.. they also give good shade with their wide leaves, and the japense morning glory loves to climb it.
