A while ago I received a bunch of potted succulents and this plant was one of many in amongst them all. I cut it back hard and popped it into this pot. It is sprouting freely all over and seems to enjoy the attention of my embroidery scissors. The plant, including pot, is currently 6.5". The leaves are furry.

I am sure it also has purple flowers, they were spent when it came time to uproot the succulents but it might give a clue to the identification.

it looks like 'Lantana montevidensis' or Trailing lantana, has small purple flwers and makes a great bonsai.
