Isn't it thrilling? It's one of these:

Yes but it's Alsobia Cygnet. One of my favorite plant. I have given away hundreds from the first plant I bought ! She sure has grown and made her trip real well does not even seem like she needed to adjust. You will love her flowers . She likes food, light and more moist. If you keep taking her babies off ( make new plants with her) she will keep growing and blooming. When she gets real big you can let the babies flow down the sides of your pot and they will also bloom. It will keep brancing out in the pot like a trailer but no pinching nesscary. But she does like a pot little larger than Av's. So as she grows move her up a step, 4 " azeala or 5 inch pan pot, I have grown many in 6 inch hanging pots, and right into 12 inch hanging pots. There's a link I wrote how to train your Cygnet .
When flowers open they are supost to open two at a time. They last 3-5 days. So the more brancing plants that grow in your pot the more flowers you will have.
Your plant looks so greatn ! I can't beleive how much she has grown. Seems like I just sent her to you !
great growing !
Here you got !
