I have a plant that I am hoping you may be able to help me identify. The plant has a fury coating, the leave which is more oval then heart shaped is green with brown around the outside of the leave. it is not bushy but grows very close to the soil, the texture of the leave is not flat but kind of bubbly, the underside is a light red or purplish color. It is producing 2 hanging shoots off the main plant with a small cluster of leaves that that produces one flower. The danty flower is bright pink almost red trumpet shaped flower that has the appearence of 5 pedals on the outer side of the flower and is as big as a nickle at the opening). The flower looks very muck like "Oxalis bowiei" but the leaves are no where as plentyful or of one color.
Thank you in advance for your help. Nancy

I think that what you have may be an episcia, which is a relative of African violets. Unfortunately the two types that we have as examples on this site are unusual ones, but if you go to google and enter Episcia, then click images, I think that you will find lots of pictures. Derek
