Description

Botanical Name: Tradescantia Zebrina ‘Wandering Dude’
Common Names: Inch Plant, Zebra Plant, Silver Inch Plant
Description: This creeping plant makes a good groundcover 6-12” high. It has succulent stems with ovate to lanceolate leaves clasping the stem. The upper leaf surface is green to purple with two wide, silvery-white stripes, while the lower leaf surface is a uniform deep magenta. If you look closely you can see the fine hairs along the leaf margins and may note that the surfaces seem to sparkle in bright light. Color intensity is greatest in full sun in our area but in more southern locations too much sun will cause the colors to wash out.
