My pegaga Gajah plant at home

Below is the picture of pegaga Gajah [1] that I plant at home. Can see the huge growth increment based on the leaf size. This type of pegaga rarely being sell in the market. I myself manage to get from one of my girlfriend who plant it in her long pot at her home in Nusa Idaman. Lucky me😍

Above picture is taken last 5 May 2016. While below is taken 8 October 2017

I just leave the pegaga plant roam all over my inner land area. Since this type is the biggest of all, therefore it is not able to dominant the land area. Because I also have various type of creeping plants in the inner land area such as pumpkin and sweet potatoes.
