Plant ID
Hi
I found this plant growing outside on the balcony after clearing away dead pansies. I noticed it had plantlets along the edge of the leaves, ready to fall off and propagate. Thanks for any feedback. Paul http://www.bodhana.co.uk/images/plantID2.gif -- Paul reply-to is valid |

Thanks to you both for the ID. The question is - how did it get into my box on the balcony 3 floors up in North London? Second question - will it be happy indoors as a house plant? I expect it would, coming from a warm climate. -- Paul reply-to is valid |

Yours could have dropped from somewhere or come in the soil with your pansies. If you let the offsets root you will soon be running out of friends to give them to! Pam in Bristol |
