# I’m not really sure how to identify this plant. two years ago, she…

_Posted by PlantNewbie12 on 2025-09-06_

I’m not really sure how to identify this plant. two years ago, she looked like the drawing (I somehow have no photos of her originally but basically individual leaves plus stem). But a while back I sadly had to shorten her for transportation and she’s bounced back but looks completely different. (Pic/florets). Does anyone know what she is and why she changed?

When you cut off the top of a plant it will sprout two new sets of branches.

Is it normal for the leaves to change shape though? They used to be longer and narrower than they are now.

Not that I know of. Maybe it was in a juvenile stage. Hmmm 🤔
