Small bushy tropical plant. Curious leaves with a craggy surface, hence the name "Moon Valley." Will flower continuous every few weeks indoors, or through the summer outdoors if not in a tropical climate. Be sure to pinch the tops when the plant starts to become leggy. Don't overwater. The plant may be found under a different species name, either P. mollis, or P. involucrata.

I like this opinion
