They should all flower. Show me a pic. Or use Google lens to identify it.

Hawthornia, that's it! I googled the rest of the name as that made me remember pear was in it.

Its in a pitcher at the moment so lots of room. I do think I should find some rocks to put over the top though. I'm going to a garden center Saturday so will get something then.

I wanted a terrarium but a £2 pitcher from Asda was cheaper. Haha

I will go take another photo so you can see if the pitcher is big enough.
