I bought this plant sometime in 2005 but lost it to the winter freeze of 2009/2010. It was labeled as Callisia warszewcziana when I bought it, I googled and found a Callisia warszewiczia but it doesn't look like my plant. Someone said it was Callisia fragrans but I have C. fragrans and this plant has much softer and broader leaves and a flatter surface appearance. It does have the same trailing habit as Callisia fragrans and other Callisia's but for the life of me I can't find a photo of any that look close to this one. I loved the foliage and would really like to find this plant again. I thought it was in the Commalinaceae family but have searched though thousands of pictures and haven't found anything similar so it may be in a different family. I'm hoping someone will recognize it so I will finally have a name and can try to locate another one. Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions!
