Does anyone know what this plant is? The leaf is like a Busy Lizzy, but it has a thick stem like a small tree.
Thanks

Looks like a parrot plant.

there are some taller varieties of impatiens and this looks like one of them that has lost its lower leaves.

Stem and leaves both say Busy Lizzie to me. I would cut the top off and reroot it - roots easily in just water.

It belongs to my friend, Ray. I hope it is a Parrot plant. We will just have to wait until it flowers.
Thanks anyway.

It looks like Brugmansia (angel's trumpet), if it is its very poisonous but beautiful. The thickend stem gave me the idea.

Hi, I don't think it's Brugmansia, the leaves are far too small, I agree with the others, Impatiens, or buzy lizzie, Derek.

That cheers me up Derek.

I hope it flowers so that we can identify it.
Thanks everyone.
