I’ve had this for about a year. Leaves stay small. Is it simply a pixie? Or is there anything more specific in the ID of this plant?

I had one od thise, but I didn't get a chance to see if the leaves would gwt any bigger or not. Mealybugs got to it and kept coming back, even after I treated and change get the soil. It was good for several weeks and reapplication of treatment in the soil and on the leaves, and the mealy bugs returned. I finally tossed the plant so as to avoid any others getting infected!
