Fun Fact About the Chenille Plant

The Chenille Plant gets its name from the French word for “caterpillar” due to its fuzzy, tail-like blooms. In warm climates, it can grow as a shrub, but in hanging baskets, it transforms into a cascading waterfall of velvety red flowers, bringing a tropical vibe to any space.


Cultivar History of the Chenille Plant

Native to the tropical regions of Southeast Asia and the South Pacific, the Chenille Plant has long been cultivated for its ornamental beauty. As part of the Euphorbiaceae family—home to poinsettias and crotons—it thrives in warm, humid conditions and is a favorite in both gardens and indoor plant collections. Its ability to bloom nearly year-round with the right care makes it a prized addition for plant lovers seeking bold color and texture.

EUFY 11S
Size: 2+8 pack
Used to replace the ones for my EUFY 11S vacuum. They fit just like the ones and got my vacuum back to cleaning really good. Didn’t realize how loud my vacuum had become until I replaced these parts.

Works great with Switch 2’s dock
I specifically bought this for the Nintendo Switch 2’s dock. I was worried about if it had the right amount of clearance to fit but it fits perfect! Note though that only the usb 3 (blue one) one will work, the usb 2 one (black) plugs in flipped.

They work as they should
But they wouldn't work for what I needed. I purchased these but the Steam Deck to take stress off the top USB C port when charging, but they're a bit too small to fit. I can find other uses for them. They feel really well abs built to last. Cables and ports seem very secure when connected.
