Never seen one like that. It's very unusual and nice.

it is called Satellite because of the petal type stamens ~if I can get some more cuttings I will ~ I am growing it as a standard and it grows really strongly ~I keep taking the little shoots from the base as you do~ I will see if there are any more available to root.

Yes, Jacque, there is one called "Star Wars". I have a couple of pics in my gallery.

Oh, Arlene, that would be brilll ! Perhaps try Terratoonie's rainwater method? :-)

~I am trying Islanders layer of perlite on the top of the water which does hold the cutting up really well~hopefully they will all root!
