Thanks for posting this !! Somebody gave me a cutting a few months ago but it did not take. I never knew the name of it. (Think the person called it ? Cat tail ? Or something like that).

@sherrisgarden Aw I’m sorry your cutting didn’t take! I think I’ve heard it called cat ears or kitten ears? But tail makes perfect sense as it can grow quite long shoots. It’s so fuzzy and cute! I have a smaller leaf version as well that is called pussy ears. This one is 8 years old now. It dies back every year and it looks like roots sitting on the surface and then a few months later it’s sending up new shoots. Fingers crossed you can get your hands on a new cutting soon!

Thanks for the info !!
