    Just taken with my new toy camera! I suspect it's Pogostemon stellatus "Narrow"? I need an ID please.

    IF they are Pogostemon stellatus "Narrow"...then those are unhealthy tops since they are brown in colour..

    otherwise it should be something else..
    How has it been growing?? how long you had it??

    I only had it yesterday. Actually the plant is quite healthy. But I'm still not sure of the ID.

    Maybe it's cos I don't know how to use the camera yet...

    You might want to take a picture of the plant from the side profile and don't crop too much (if you did)

    Might not be unhealthy plants. Take a look at the stem; it's about the same color as the top, which is expected. As the tops are nearest the light, it takes on a nice reddish coloration. I believe this is what we're seeing.
