You have just a rooted cutting 4 or 5 months old
a few years will be necessary to have a plant flowering (80cm high )

They are often sold as 3 or 4 rooted cuttings in a pot, so you may have 4 rather than one branched plant. It can be quite handy if you want spares for plant sales/swaps, to give to friends, propagate from, etc. Perhaps annoying if not!

Hi Kathy, yeah it looks like that lol. I've had a couple of lower leaves shrivel up and turn yellow, why is this happening? Seems to be ok now though. [WHITE SMILING FACE]

They tend to do that, probably nothing to worry about.

Just too easy to grow from leaves popped into compost. I can't even give them away!
