Tradescantia Purple Heart

Tradescantia Pallida, aka Setcreasea purpurea or Purple Heart Plant, is another stunner to add to your collection. With bunches of purple, elongated leaves, its sprawling stems are known to cascade, making them ideal decorative accents displayed in hanging baskets, especially when delicate, pink flowers begin to appear in the summer. Handle your plant carefully as its fleshy stems and leaves can break easily, similar to other Tradescantia.
