Common Name - Tradescantia pallida, Purple Heart

Country of Origin - Mexico 

How to grow - Tradescantia likes warm temperatures and bright indirect light, they need warmer temperatures to survive so make an ideal house plant but can be outside for the summer. Frost will kill them if left outside. They prefer to stay moist as long as they are warm, so a good multipurpose compost is fine for potting on.

Hardiness - 1c

Description - Makes a great hanging basket plant with vibrant purple foliage and pink flowers. Can be outside during the summer but to overwinter will need to be brought inside.

 

All plants will be shipped bare root. Grown in 9cm pot

The plant in the picture will be similar to the one you receive, but not always the exact one. Any questions about sizes please contact us before ordering. 

Due to the nature of this plant it may look droopy on arrival after being dried for posting, these however will perk up very quickly after having being potted on and given a good drink on arrival.
