Okay, you added two more..
seems what happened is......

When you put an image,
there's a http// thing that comes up in blue....
you either have to delete that, or back space
it and and it will disappear... then you can paste in your URL and put it in and it'll then
put the image in...

Now can anyone tell me what this thing is, I know this isn't a great picure at all, but any ideas. It was little tiny thing when I got it but it has grown leaps and bounds.

The leaves are pretty strong, but not thick or waxy and no it hasn't bloomed at all.

I think it's a coralberry. I bought a plant that looks the same (although yours might be a tad darker, but could just be the picture, or could be the natural variance among plants) that was not labeled. I saw a picture in a plant book of coralberry, and decided that was it, after also doing a web-search for more pictures. Mine also has no berries, but they apparently only fruit outdoors, or in high indoor light. They don't like to dry out (water when surface just begins to dry), and though they need high light to fruit, mine has been growing in low-light (putting on new growth). But I could be wrong in my ID, I have a hard time ID'ing from pictures unless I see many pictures of different plants of the same variety. Do a pic search and see what you think.

It does look like a hoya to me.. it looks a lot like mine if it were clearer I could tell more.

This photo came out much much better(new camera and it is really trying my patience..LOL ), The leaves on the coralberry seemed smaller then this, and the Hoya had very thick leaves.

Yeah you're right, not the hoya.

My first thought, due to the shape of the leaves, was also a coralberry, aka ardisia--good luck!
by kirksgirl on January 03, 2006 12:32 PM
Coral Adisia seems to be a perfect match, in color and the shape of the leaves. Now I just have to figure out how to get it to produce those berries..LOL this a picture from the internet- thanks everyone!!

The leaves look like a coffee tree I had once. What are the stems like? Do they look barkish near the base?

may God bless the WHOLE world!
by kirksgirl on January 03, 2006 08:33 PM
The stems are thin but very storng, and they are a little barkish at the base, It also needs quite a bit of sun and water, if I forget to water it over a long peroid of time it can get very droopy, but will perk up almost immediatly after it is watered. Your right the leaves look like coffee plant leaves...
