I didn't want to wait to post this, since I love posting about
New Babes, but I cannot for the life of me remember what this one was called. I don't know the common name for it - usually knowing that helps me find the scientific name. Anyway, I got this from the Plant and See Nursery in Winterville, NC when I was down visiting my sister. As I recall, it likes a good watering and some bright light (how generic, don't all plants?).

| Looks less expansive in this photo, but maybe it's just me. |
I noticed tonight when I got home that the leaves had lifted up almost completely vertical. This remind me of the prayer plant. Perhaps it is some distant cousin of that plant?
