Episcia - 'War Paint'?

The episcias pictured here started their lives in my garden on 12 July 2009 as three somewhat unremarkable stem cuttings. By and by, without my paying too much attention to them, they have all grown into lovely plants. The biggest leaf thus far measures about 11cm in length (pictured below).

I love the almost velvety feel of the leaves. Whilst I am not able to identify this episcia, it is clear that these episcias have distinguished themselves from the other smaller leafed episcias in my garden.

The biggest leaf thus far measuring about 5cm in length. 20 Sep 09

This is the second largest leaf measuring about 9cm in length.
