| Here's how it looked when it first arrived home with two huge leaves (one outside pix view; only stalk visible). Found out it is from the Beleaf series bred and propagated in Netherlands by Koppe and this one is called "African Jungle" |
 |
| Smaller and new leaves emerge. Thank goodness! |
 |
| Transferred to smaller pot cuz the plant(s) just seem to shrink. It was worrying, considering how far it travelled and how many people the journey had involved. |
 |
| A sturdy grower. Time for a larger repot soon. Exciting cuz growth could really take off rapidly in new pot and medium; anxious cuz every change comes with risk. In addition to African Jungle , others in same Beleaf collection include: Morning Dew, Inca Fire, Evening Glow, Maori Haze... |
 |
| Single leaf kindly donated by plant vendor. It does look like a different cultivar from the one that came in the pot, doesn't it? |
 |
| 6 weeks in water for root sprouting (mainly cuz I was distracted going to Perth) before potting in peat pot. |
 |
| First pinkies emerging after ...(need to check my notes) |
