Tradescantia zebrina 'Purple Highway' Hanging Basket

Tradescantia zebrina 'Purple Highway' is a fast-growing trailing plant with striped leaves in purple and silver. Grown in a hanging basket, it spills over the edge into a full, colourful curtain.

Give it bright, indirect light to keep the purple tones strong. It goes green and leggy in low light. Water when the top few centimetres of soil feel dry. Pinch back the tips now and then to keep it bushy. The cuttings root easily in water. The sap can irritate the skin of people and pets.

Available in a 250mm hanging basket.
