Its leaves feel thick but not succulent thick, not like Elephant's Food (portulacaria). It's growing like crazy and I would like to repot it but the stems break super easy so I'm afraid to move it. I don't know how to support the growing stems though because I think it would crawl up the window if I had a small lattice for it…maybe that would help stabilize it and then I could repot it into a bigger pot? Any stem support advice and what plant it might be?

  1. My guess is Swedish Ivy, aka Creeping Charlie, aka *plectranthus verticillatus*. I have grown this in Southern California [10A or 10b] where it grew huge, and Northern California [9b], where it grew huge, and now in the PNW [8a], where it grows decently outside in the summer, but has to come inside over the winter. I’ve seen it online in variegated form too, but I’ve never grown it. Has lovely 1/2″ teeny flowers, very delicate.
