Purple Floofer? I love it and this kind of bloom is right down my alley!! Gorgeous! Lovey dubby

Elaine, good question. I have no clue why this one grows floppy in less light. Someone told me a few years ago to increase light on this plant and that worked! The new growth is nowadays nicely sturdy. I wish I had known it seems to grow from all directions, it would have been better in a wire basket. There are a couple of new shoots squeezing through the slats, which I probably have to break.
