Love Tradescantia it reminds me that you don't need a sense of smell to be a great plant hunter. Google John Tradescant to discover more

lovemygarden65

@justin mine aren't flowering yet, gorgeous 💜 mine are getting to big for their space, am I better to lift the whole plant and divide or can I just dig bits out 🤔

comment
justin

Oh I will!! Thanks for that @igrowhort

comment
justin

To be honest Marilyn @lovemygarden65 I was really brutal with both my clumps earlier this spring and literally just drove my spade into both plants and they've both been fine 👍

Love this Justin, Is it easy to grow and does it spread quickly?

9w
comment
justin

Very easy... Doesn't take any work at all to be honest other than snails seem to like it so I keep my beady eye in that Mo! Hasn't really spread fast at all and it's easy to pull up any unwanted bits 😃👍 @mojo

Just wondering, this plant looks very similar to a Tradescantia. I remember seeing this in some gardens in the West Country. What do you think?
