Anyone grow this as a houseplant? I'm intrigued with one I found on ebay. Green leaves with bright pink splashes! Wow.

Thank you for the link Larry. It shed some light on this mysterious plant. I also have since read what Glasshouse Works had to say about the plant (they offer it for sale). They said the 'Party Time' requires loads of humidity. So I guess this plant is not an option for me. Oh well. I'm having fun looking anyway. I LOVE Glasshouse Works. Only problem is in the deciding!

Seaecho I have this plant growing in my containers. I was just deciding if I have the room to bring them it.
