George I is definitely (99.5% certain) Hemig...Okay. George I is definitely (99.5% certain) <i>Hemigraphis exotica</i>, purple waffle plant.<br /><br />George "Lavender Lace" II I can only guess blindly at: <i>Browallia</i>? <i>Ruellia</i>? <i>Nicotiana</i>? I have zero confidence in any of those guesses. It feels like I know this one and just can't think of the name, but it also feels very much like it's normally an outdoor plant, not something people usually grow inside, which means that I may never actually be able to come up with an ID. My brain was all but screaming <i>Ruellia</i> at me, but the pictures I came up with via Google image search don't look right at all. So I don't know. Sorry. The only "lavender lace" that came up from Google was a <i>Cuphea</i> and was pretty definitely not your plant. I'll keep thinking about it. <br /><br />George III is definitely, 100% certain, a <i>Hoya</i>, but it's fairly difficult to ID <i>Hoya</i>s from leaves. The odds say <a href="http://plantsarethestrangestpeople.blogspot.com/2008/02/romance-novel-heroine-hoya-carnosa-cvv.html" rel="nofollow"><i>H. carnosa</i></a>, the somewhat longer and larger leaves say possibly <i>H. pubicalyx</i>. Care is basically the same either way, as far as I know.mr_subjunctivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14113199755474482747noreply@blogger.com
