Monkey backpack basil

On my birthday Sam gave me a this plant that I've seen a couple of times in the shops. I've wanted a plant for our place pretty much since we got here so it was nice to receive this low maintenance plant. =D It's a monkey (they have cats and dogs too) with a backpack of soil that hangs on to the edge of a cup. It uses it's tail to suck up the water in the cup when it needs it. The seeds that came with my monkey were basil seeds thought it doesn't look like basil to me (well right now anyway). It's grown really well and requires basically no care except for occasionally having to top up the water in the cup.
