Hi All,

I'm re-posting this thread here at the request of some helpful people in the house plants forum. I bought the tall plant that is flowering in the picture below from a little city gardening store in Boston a couple of years ago. The clerks at the store thought it might be a coffee plant, but they weren't completely sure.

I was hoping of you might have a good read on what type of plant it is? It actually usually looks quite a bit different than it does right now. It seems to get stressed when I move it inside/outside in the Spring and Fall, and loses lots of its leaves. When I moved it outside this spring it seemed to grow back substantially more leaves than usual, which are smaller and more closely grouped to the stem. The little pink flowers are new too.



tropicbreezent in the house plant forum thought it might be Clerodendron? The previous thread is here: http://forums2.gardenweb.com/discussions/3249698/please-help-identify-this-plant-coffee-plant. Thank you in advance for any assistance you may be able to provide.
