Most likely a Pouteria species, and (judging by the name) probably native to the (Ecuadorian?) Amazon, and probably bears edible fruit, but I don’t know any of that for sure. Anyone have an idea as to what it could be?

Not my photo, but the photographer doesn't know what it is, and I don't either. Understory herbaceous thing.

I really would love to know what it is, and also I kind of want one, so let me know if there's a reason I shouldn't.

I tried researching, but I stumbled upon conflicting results. Anyone familiar with this one?

It grows in very shallow soil on top of rock faces.

It can be found in Cambodia and maybe other SE Asian countries

Hi everyone,

The label is saying that this plant is a "Portulaca" without specifying.

But the label also says to put the plant in partial shading with a humid soil. Another red flag compared to the Portulaca Umbraticola is that the label says it's highly toxic to humans when I found online that it's not.

Finally, I first tried putting it on a full sunlight balcony (bright hot sun from 10am to 9pm). It become red/yellow but bloomed, now it's on a partially shaded balcony (light sun from 7am to 10pm) and it's still loosing its leaves, even more, the color is worsening as you can see.

That's why I tried online identifiers and they all told me Portulaca umbraticola and that the needs were not the one I had on the label... I might be overwatering then (once every two days).

Should I trust the label and let it there and continue watering? Or shouldn't I trust the label?

I keep seeing this video and every time I'm uncertain. I'm pretty sure that's not how normal strawberry plants look, and the fact that all of the berries are ripe at the same time is suspicious. On the other hand they look naturally connected to the plant and not stabbed into branches..

I took it over from a former colleague in the office and am now looking after it. Google Lens and apps like Pl@ntNet have suggested Ponytail Palm or Pandanus (but I think they only have similarities and are not exactly this plant). Does anyone recognize this plant?

Found this growing in front of someone's house, beautiful flowers but no idea what tree.

Any ideas? Google lens results weren't helpful.

Thinking elm, zelkova, or hawthorn.

Can anyone help me identify these cluster flowers that started growing in my garden? My partner and I are not certain what they are or how they got here, but they’re quite pretty. We are in climate zone 10 according to the 2023 plant hardiness zone map.
