Greetings, All!

My mother-in-law recently gave us a plant for our anniversary. I've
never seen anything quite like it, and it is just a cute as a button.
She bought it at Wal-Mart and it had a hand written tag attached that
said "Cassandra's Panties." There were no instructions about care,
sunlight, feeding or anything.

It reminds me of a pocketbook plant, except in place of the little
pouches it has really cute, white lacy doily-kind-of-things (the
blossoms) and they actually look like old fashioned petti-pants. There
are about two dozen of these blossoms on it right now, and I am trying
to give it plenty of light in hopes of making them last longer.

Is this the right thing to do? Does anyone know anything about this
plant? Could there be another name for it? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Keep them moist, with a little brown fertilizer, & if you happen also to
be a bank robber, you could wear them over your head.

"Oh, sir! The flowers, they are wild," replied the timid creature.
