Cat Whiskers - Again!


Last May, there were several post about a plant called Cat Whiskers, which was ultimately identified as Oithosithon. I finally obtained a cutting but was unable to find any other information searching under the name Oithosithon.

I finally searched backwards using "Cat Whiskers" and found that the correct name is actually:

Orthosiphon stamineus

Here is a link to a page on its culture: http://hatchettcreek.com/culture/html/cats_whiskers.html
