Purple Heart

i keep one in the house, never gets very purple, but cutting can go out to the garden each year, and theres always plenty.
This looks great Panther.

Thanks Greenthumb.

Panther,

This plant is a nice ground cover...it grows nicely around palm trees. It does well here because it is pretty drought tolerant. It's botanical name is Tradescantia pallida...and you're correct it is in the same genus as Wondering Jew.

Thanks Delonix, have noted that. Yes I can imagine it growing around palm trees must be pretty.
:-)

I've seen it growing around palms before....I'll have to find some and take a photo.

Please do if you can, I'll be looking forward to seeing it.Thanks.
