Description

purple leaf spider plant Tradescantia pallida(aka: Setcreasea pallida) Tradescantia pallida is a fabulous North American native (Northeastern Mexico), known primarily as a hanging basket plant. While purple heart spiderwort is great in baskets, we find it even better as a clumping groundcover of brilliant purple foliage. In the garden in full to part sun, it holds its color all summer, until dying back at first frost. In late summer, Tradescantia pallida produces a 1' tall x 30" wide tangle of

(aka: Setcreasea pallida) Tradescantia pallida is a fabulous North American native (Northeastern Mexico), known primarily as a hanging basket plant. While purple heart spiderwort is great in baskets, we find it even better as a clumping groundcover of brilliant purple foliage. In the garden in full to part sun, it holds its color all summer, until dying back at first frost. In late summer, Tradescantia pallida produces a 1' tall x 30" wide tangle of lax fleshy purple stalks with small, starry mauve-pink flowers. During decades of growing this outdoors, purple heart spiderwort has been reliable for us to 0 degrees F.

Maintenance:

Tradescantia pallida is a very low to no maintenance perennial in the full sun garden. If the foliage becomes tattered due to pets, mis-behaving kids, or hail, you can cut the plant to the ground after which it will quickly resprout.

Growing Conditions:

Purple heart spiderwort performs best and has the best coloration when grown in areas that receive at least four hours of sun daily. Average soil moisture to fairly dry conditions are best. Purple heart does not like waterlogged soils.

Tradescantia pallida was known for years as Setcreasea pallida.

It doesn’t stay in
The pipe keeps coming out. Not worth the money. Not sturdy to hold a top table.

Good finish, poor hardware.
Set screws are poor quality and are sometimes powdercoated on the exposed threads. Leads to striped hex sockets and inability to tighten properly. Durable finish as evidenced by no visible damage after throwing parts across the shop in frustration. Ended up running self tapping screws thru parts to complete assembly.

Kinda flimsy…
Thought the assembly was metal, it’s some kind of PVC.

Fantastic for furniture making

Frankly, I didn't know what to expect... But these turned out to be exactly what I was looking and hoping for. These table legs were so easy to assemble. They come with adjustable feet so you can have a level table no matter your tabletop shape or floor situation. Assembly is done with a simple Allen key. Printed instructions are included with simple diagrams that are so easy to follow. Also, the seller provided all the hardware needed and more! They provided multiple black screws of different sizes that fit through the top holes of the legs, making it so easy to screw the leg base into the table top (use an electric drill with a Philips head for that). I had zero issues with any of the hardware provided. The base has a nice smooth black powder coat application on the metal. Shipping was so quick too. Seriously, if you are looking for a low cost, easy to assemble, good looking, and adjustable end table base, get this. I ended up making plant stands with these using some tree slices I had as you can see in my photo. 10/10 highly recommend.
