Really hard to tell right now but if it's what I think it probably is, it has a telling bloom.
Please post pics in a year or so when it blooms for you.

Regarding your question about pictures - what you should do is first upload the pictures to the gallery, and then once they are in your gallery each photo will offer you the code to use to make them appear in the threads properly. Look under the picture for the different sets of pre-formatted code for you to copy and paste back in the thread. If you get two tabs going when you are ready to post a set of photos, you can paste the pics to the post in one tab, and navigate your gallery in the other.

What you did was add them as attachments, that's not the recommended way to add photos here. I will think about some better way to steer people in the right direction when they want to upload pictures to a thread, I have seen quite a few people using the attachment feature for picture uploads.
Posting them to the gallery first also is beneficial because this also makes them searchable and able to show up in search results from the gallery when people search by keyword. I know your plant here has no ID, but let's say it did and you labeled it when you uploaded them to the gallery, if someone wanted to see pics of that plant and did a search for it by name, your pics would show up in the results. Using the attachment feature, the pics are basically lost and not searchable from the gallery.
Regards
