The app didn’t recognize it?

#### Sarai replied on 2026-07-25

I think it’s lavender

#### Tam Law replied on 2026-07-25

NOT lavenders

### Brittny commented on 2026-07-25

It said a purple waffle plant but that doesn’t seem right. I think it’s a calathea of some sort

### JR commented on 2026-07-25

I don’t think calathea. But I don’t know what it is

### Tay commented on 2026-07-25

I checked off-app. The search returned Okinawa Spinach.
