five months on. Got two of them, both look about the same and also about the same as they did when i first got them. should have measured them.

lol I dunno! I'm still trying to find details for it. I think the foliage colour is what i's about - the label just visible in the pot seems to show silver plants, rather than any flowers. if/when I find out for sure I'll add the relevant details

I bought one of these, and it stayed looking exactly the same for months. I discovered it had died, eventually, but it was hard to tell.

lol tha's encouraging, Gattina! thanks, do you know what it died of? though probably a bit hard to tell if it showed no signs. I'll definitely have to check up the how-to on this plant

Probably the cold, hun, but I suppose I could save money by nailing its remains to a plant pot and it would be everlasting - who would know the difference?

lol spray it with starch to stiffen it, varnish it in case it needs weatherproofing now "it is no more, it is an ex-plant" and there ya go!

It can join the "ex-parrots" in the sky! (hope you're a Monty Python fan)

yes, well, more or less - like most of it, not all. But who couldn't like that one?

Good colour to contrast with other plants. I don't know it. Does it flower?
