Plant ID please

Post by Raj »

Hello
I've had this diminutive fella (around 3 inches high) for around 10 years, from a time when my name keeping was a little patchy. Can someone assist?
Many Thanks
Robert

Yes, having seen Diane's id (thanks Diane) and searched on the 'care of', it looks like a bigger pot is called for.
