Medinilla sedifolia

Medinilla sedifolia is a perennial plant of the family Melastomataceae that grows primarily in Madagascar, but is occasionally used as a terrarium plant, an epiphyte mounting, or in hanging pots. It is small for the genus, growing only 3-6 in tall. The waxy evergreen leaves grow on a trailing stem. It flowers twice per year, the five petaled flowers are magenta, waxy to the touch, and about 1/2 in wide when fully grown.

Etymology
Medinilla is named for José de Medinilla y Pineda, who was governor of Mauritius (then known as the Marianne Islands) in 1820.
