Tradescantia pallida ‘Purpurea’ | Purple Heart Plant | 12 cm Pot

Tradescantia pallida ‘Purpurea’, commonly known as the Purple Heart Plant, is a fast-growing perennial prized for its vivid violet-purple leaves and stems.

Its spreading, trailing growth habit makes it ideal for hanging baskets, containers, borders and groundcover. The bold foliage provides excellent colour contrast in gardens and mixed plant displays.

Purple Heart grows best in full sun to bright partial shade, with stronger light encouraging deeper purple colouring. Water moderately and allow the soil to dry slightly between watering. A well-draining growing medium is recommended.

Regular trimming helps maintain a compact, bushy shape and encourages fresh growth.

Pot size: 12 cm
