great plant and well packed
My fault for not doing my usual due diligence - the Zebrina was a healthy specimum but in my opinion this plant should never be sold without a warning attached.
Magnificent in a basket and lovely to look at, if it escapes into the garden, or is thrown into the bush it is a genuine menace. It grows roots at every junction and can take a number of years of concentrated effort to remove.
There are many wiser choices to be made.
It isn't potted but sweet little plant
Nice at present
