Young bindi-eye plant? Looks like a bindi growing in the centre....haven't seen one for years but remember standing on them as a youngster.

Indeed a bindi. The photo is quite deceiving, the pot is a little over an inch and a half tall.

Soliva sessilis.

Good eyes Jan, and Jake :)

It makes a nice little accent plant; the new green is well set off by the creamy pot. Nice lines to the pot, too.

Good to see a dreaded bindi put to good use. Keep "looking" with your mind open; it's amazing what you'll find.

Well done, Anja.
