I recently came across an interesting creature called Dischidia (Snaily) Plant. It grows in a snail shell so I wanted to mention it in my blog. I did not have a long experience with house plants because I was living with my parents and my mother was taking care of ours but after I moved out, I started to feel interested and learned more about them.
This Dischidia plant grows in an unusual container -a real snail shell which originates from the rice fields of Thailand. Because of the curling leaves, the Dischidia plant resembles a snail, although fortunately the plant grows faster. I saw it in a friends house and here is how it looks:

Hi :) Lucky of you to have one actually. I saw this one in a friend's house and it is a bit difficult to find it in some countries. But it looks really nice and interesting.
