Solved Save that Plant

A friend gave me a small plant he rescued from a skip, probably as a bit of a joke. That was in 2018 and some nice people on here helped me identify it. I still have it and its produced lots of small ones and is now over 2 ft tall These are the then and now photos so lets give all plants a chance

 

I agree, and well done on getting the plant to grow, I don't throw plants away until I've tried all ways of reviving them.

 

you must do appropriate action to save the life of the plant

 

That's great, well done.

 

Last year I planted a Honeysuckle which was little more than a stick. It did nothing. Today I planted its replacement and when I gently pulled the stem of the old plant it came away with nothing attached. However, when I dug the hole to put the replacement in I found the bottom of the "stick" attached to roots. This I have now put in some seed compost with plenty Rootgrow and placed it on a heat mat, under the lights, in the garage. Who knows. It might return to life.

 

@Greybelle, it goes by the 'simple' name of Pilea peperomiodes.
Although it has grown well, personally I would cut it back.

Solved - Rescued Plant

 

I did think of cutting it back at one time, Strongylodon, but decided it looked really unique and beautiful, with the leaves fully extended, in its own right. I've only ever seen this plant sold as a small, compact thing.
I look forward to seeing a picture of your old honeysuckle if you manage to re-grow it, Jocko

 

Your plant is still a baby..see this

 

OMG!!! Silver Surfer thank you so much for this. I now have big ambitions for my small twig
