    I am an American currently living in central Japan. Recently, I bought a houseplant from a typical home-goods store. Once I got home I realized I had no idea what the plant is, nor the best way to care for it.

    The plant has clusters of tiny, four-petal blooms. The bloom cluters are red, coral, fuschia, and white. The leaves are thick, waxy and break easily. The original container was very small so i have split the plant into two pots.

    I realy appreciate any help you can give since I am not nearly fluent enough to ask the store employess where I purchased it.
