Used as ground cover here in my back yard. It keeps wandering into my paths. Easy, no care.

This is the 1st of 3 winters this plant has not dropped all of it's leaves. We misted it 3x a day this year.

I keep it indoor in hanging basket, it grows few long stems, one even reach the floor, about 5ft. long. It is a thirsty plant.
