This is a cutting I received recently. It love humidity. I had it in a plastic bag to root. I was very surprised to see it blooming this morning.
Anyone know what kind of plant this it? Colors are true in the photo
Mystery Plant
Gorgous !
I think that's Ruellia portellae - not a gesneriad. http://www.cambridge2000.com/gallery/html/P3145326.html
funny, kenton recently had a noid that looked like a gessie and it turned out to be a ruellia as well.
Thanks Ki. The picture on the cambridge site looks exactly like the plant.
Nice plant looks fun for ground cover in garden beds borders , hanging baskets ! My kind of plant. And when it goes outside hubby take care of it !
Looks like it rooted and grew easy for you Nanna ?
You're right. I'm and leaving it in the plastic bag. It seems to do better with humidity. I'll wheen it when it becomes fully rooted.
