Tradescantia pallida 'Purpurea'

Tradescantia pallida, often called Setcreasea purpurea, hails from Mexico and is a fantastic choice for outdoor spaces in tropical and semi-tropical regions, where it serves beautifully as ground cover. This lovely plant has also long been a staple as a houseplant, but it's gaining popularity for outdoor gardens, too, both for ground cover and in containers. Growing up to 8 inches tall, its trailing stems can reach 18 inches or more, adorned with thick yet delicate stems and pointed, narrow-oblong, v-shaped leaves that elegantly sheath the stems. You'll be delighted by the small clusters of pink, three-petaled flowers that bloom beautifully on this plant.

The cultivar 'Purpurea,' known affectionately as 'Purple Heart,' showcases even more stunning purple foliage than the species, with vibrant violet-purple stems and leaves that truly stand out.

As a tender perennial, Tradescantia pallida thrives in USDA Zones 10-11. It flourishes in rich, moist, well-drained soil, enjoying full sun to part shade, where the purple hues are at their best. Despite its love for sunlight, it’s good to note that strong winds can threaten its fragile stems, so ensure it gets some protection. After the blooms have faded, it's best to snip away the flower stems promptly. Feel free to pinch back the stems whenever needed to keep the plant looking its best and encourage fresh growth. While propagation is easy with cuttings, please note that seeds aren't available. You can save cuttings to overwinter for the following year, and if you have container plants, simply cut them back and bring them indoors for a cozy winter.

My favorite new mineral sunscreen!
Style: SPF 50 Roll On, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my favorite new mineral sunscreen! I've been searching for years for a product that is easy to apply, not messy, and doesn't show up too white. This roll-on is the perfect solution. I keep it near the front door and quickly roll the sunscreen on my hands, arms, and chest before leaving the house. The sunscreen applies so quickly and uniformly-- there are no bare spots or messy globs to rub in. Also, the roll-on keeps the sunscreen from oozing out of the tube and getting all over everything. Finally, the roll-on method also eliminates the frustration of having half-filled tubes and pumps where you can't even access the sunscreen when the tube gets low. Here's hoping this doesn't happen with the roll-on. Thank you Sun Bum for creating this wonderful product. I also love the reasonable price.

great product - it must be blended in well
Style: SPF 50 Roll On, Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Love this stuff. The roll-on makes it easy to apply on the go. It leaves a white streak unless you blend it in. I don't mind the white streak - at least I know I applied the product.
