They are named as Sederia japonica 'Super Star'

They were advertised as 'near flowering size' but I highly doubt they will flower any time soon as they are Tiny with a capital T.

Your comment about a round leaved one drew my attention.

The two plants I received have really different leaves. One is really round, the other long and thin. Could they be a different cultivar?

Mine came in a 5 cm pot, already with a spike with 4 buds. It was a bit bigger then yours. So maybe you'll get some flowers next season! It grew considerably and I can't say I've been a fan of those long leaves. They were shorter and more round when I got her. But I kind of started to like the way she is growing. The leaves are growing more upright than many phals. I was expecting it to be more flat, but it makes a fuller appearance.

Yes, I believe yours could be different variety. But don't be discouraged if they are not. They will grow on you!
