Here is my paddle plant, he has grown quite abit in the last year and I heard that if you water it with coffee, the leaves will get their pink edges even if it doesn't get enough light... anyone hear that?? I'm too scared to try it.

Yea, I rember hearing words to that once! Don't know how true that is though! I have used coffee grounds on some of my plants and it seems to really improve the plant ( and the soil )! Who knew coffee grounds would serve another purpose then just putting them in a compost pile or throwing them away after you were finished with them )!!!
Your plant looks healthy to me though and whatever your doing,keep it up!
Good Luck!

I have one similar to that and it's called the flapjack plant! :D It has lighter green leaves with red edges. I have it out on the deck and it has gotten so big!! <_< I just repotted it! ;)
It was one of the "rescues" Jesse and I bought at Lowes this winter! ;)
