I think i like this a bit more than the brasil variety of this plant. Looks like many other plants, but the color seems more bold!

I received this plant by accident in a shipping error. My order was corrected and I received a free plant! The leaves were in great condition, the plant was super healthy, and this plant found its home with the two plants I had actually ordered when I received this one.
