Hi guys,
Nice site! Like it and have just joined in.

Is this a Rebuta Muscula or something else? It is fairly small, only about 4 cm x 3cm and no small ones (kids) (whatever the techical term is).

Many thanks for your help/LJ

I think you could be right there good chap, the term for new growth coming from the underside of the plant is offsetting.

It sure looks the part. A larger pot might help offsets to develop. Or it might just need time. When they come, a lot will come very quickly, then you'll need a bigger pot ;)
