Hello all
My mom recently passed away and she left me this plant, which she liked alot. Can anyone tell me what it is? I would say leaves are on the small side. It was a tiny plant when she got it. thanks!!

Did your mother have it as a house plant? To me, the plant doesn't remind me of a house plant at all, but I may be wrong. In my opinion, the plant looks like Spotted dead-nettle.

However, the Spotted dead nettle I'm talking about is a ground cover perennial, and I've never seen it grow in pots.

It reminds me of one I used to have Chinese Violet (Asystasia gangetica 'You're So Vein')

no she had it outdoors, we are in south florida. She watered it every morning and it got really big and lush.

You might be right although this has not ever bloomed. I seem to remember the name began with an A because I was with her when she bought it.

Hyperboly, you said it has never bloomed and yet in the top left center of image #1, there seems to be a pale lavender flower.
Is that from the plant in question or from something else?

Hey!! You are right! Good catch! This is actually the first time it has flowered! It was towards the back of the plant and I didn't see it this morning!
What a coincidence!

Hey hyper!! Sweet!!!!
Mystery solved! Take care.
