Gynura auranticum - Purple Velvet Plant


Gynura auranticum - Purple Velvet Plant (Gynura auranticum - Purple Velvet Plant)

I had this plant outside the front door...then it was moved to the side of the house and transplanted in early February. It appears to like more sun and is growing very fast. I'm afraid to see what would happen if I put it into the ground. Photo taken June 8, 2016.

I really like it! It does very well growing outside here in San Diego. I wasn't sure if it would grow outside here. It's a very tropical plant.

I thought this form was suppose to be more upright and shrubby. It appears to be more shrubby vine-like.
