Unknown Terrarium Plant
 

This is a plant (not an orchid) which I considered a weed when I grew orchids in Hawaii because it was EVERYWHERE! Here in Texas, I think it makes a great terrarium plant because it is attractive and grows VERY fast. I have it growing in my terrariums with the roots directly in water, but I have seen it growing outside just on the outside of my patio growing as a small, squat little thing in the Texas heat. When growing 'wild' it sticks to the areas that are shady. You can see TINY pink flowers on the last pic.

Very cool!

Thanks! I posted this question to Facebook and I got the answer Pilea microphylla. I believe I have found the name I've been searching for.

For what its worth, I highly recommend this species for terrarium growers who are looking for an ornamental plant that is attractive, grows quickly and absorbs nutrients to combat algae growth.

Yes, Pilea microphila is common in Greenhouse culture...it launches its seed hence the nickname Artillery Plant.
