Fame Flower or the Jewels of Opar

I was surprised that this plant in my garden which I bought last June as an ornamental plant is edible pala and medicinal, too. I learned something today!😀 

After five months, it is now taller by a few inches. I learned also to propagate it through cuttings. Pls. watch the video below where I attempted to make it bushier...👇🏻
