Purple heart

Purple Heart (Tradescantia pallida) is a striking ornamental plant loved for its vivid purple foliage and trailing growth habit. Its lance-shaped leaves and stems are deep purple with a velvety texture, adding bold color to gardens, patios, or indoor containers. In warmer months, it may produce small, pinkish-lavender flowers that contrast beautifully with its rich foliage.
This hardy, fast-growing plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and is often used as ground cover or in hanging baskets. Indoors, it prefers bright, indirect light and well-draining soil. Purple Heart is drought-tolerant once established and easy to propagate, making it a favorite for beginners and experienced gardeners alike. Its vibrant color and trailing vines create instant visual impact in any setting.
