What is this plant?

[sara213]

I bought a tropical plant at loblaws (grocery store) the other day for 2 dollars. It looks really pretty but it does not have a name. I was hoping maybe someone here can help identify it for me.

I will post a picture in another post if it allows me


never mind because I can't post anything.

You need to have several posts before you can post a pic. It's to weed out spammers. Just comment on a few posts and you'll have enough. And welcome to TEG!

Hay! Let's all see if we can guess what it is with only the few clues given!



It is available in a local or regional grocery store somewhere where they type in regular North American English.
It is a tropical plant.
It only cost 2 clams.
It's really pretty.

Welcome to the forum Sara213!



My guess is it is in the African Violet family, a Gesneriadaceae.

I'll guess too Marshall, ummm....how 'bout....Kalanchoe?

I am thinking Zebra plant, but don't know if you can buy one of those for $2.

Possibly a Croton ? Or some type of succulent ? Anything could be marked down to $2 for clearance.

I just found that out even though I've been a member for a couple of years but haven't posted just have been reading.

Any ideas what this is. We live in North Central Florida.

Since the board won't let me post images or links, I have posted pictures on My Page.
