Geophilia repens
Geophila repens is a creeping, evergreen herbaceous plant with small opposite leaves and prostrate stems that root at the nodes. It spreads along the surface of the soil, forming a dense mat of foliage. The leaves are ovate to round, typically hairy underneath, and attached by short petioles. This species produces small white flowers at the leaf axils, followed by bright red or orange berries. It is well-suited to environments with stable moisture and low light.
How to care for your Geophilia -

Light: Allow bright indirect light.
Humidity: They like high humidity above 70%
Temperature: Needs average to warm conditions 16-25°C.
