Re: Plant id?

First - are you saying that the plant you bought does not match the information you found so you think the plant was mislabeled? 
or
are you saying that you have Indian Rhododendron and you're not sure what to do with it? 
And
Which plant do you have?
Melastoma malabathricum
or
Rhododendron simsii
?

Subject: [CHAT] Plant id?
I bought a couple of plants yesterday that were marked Indian Rhododendron.... but when I look it up it shows an invasive shrub. It is more like a annual with bronze foilage and tiny purple flowers. It has a vine like habit.... very attractive plant. Now I am not sure what I have.... do any of you know what this sounds like? I thought they would make an intersting plant for summer then use as a house plant this fall. 
Thank you for any help!
