I've had to unmount this plant a year ago, which nearly killed it. It has taken to its new net pot, and is now growing shoots galore through the openings. I love the rich colors of these tiny flowers.

Very cute, they look like tiny lollipops on a stick. Glad you didn't kill it. It is hard to tell how big this is.

Very cool looking! Do those flowers open more than in the pictures? Or have they not opened yet?

The egg shaped flowers are only 0.5 cm long, the leaves about 1 cm. The flowers are pollinated by minute insects, and last about a week, but the plant blooms off and on throughout the year.
