Need your help on another ID please. The tag from wally-world only says "houseplant". Variegated white/green stripes on the top side of the leaves and purple underneath. Found something online very similar, but wanted to run it pass you all. Is this an Oyster Plant or Moses in the Cradle? house plant ( photo / image / picture from cherylad's Garden )
Tradescantia spathacea (Oyster Plant, Boatlily) Wandering Jew is also known as Moses in a cradle and is purple on top and bottom.... Tradescantia pallida (Wandering Jew, Purple Heart)
Thanks Toni for confirming. Why can't the people at the nursery that supplies these just put that on the tag instead of "I'm a Houseplant". Geez!
That plant is from Exotic Angel Plants, there should be a name on that tag unless the person who donated it put the wrong one in...or maybe a plant ID number. Then you have to go to their website to get it's name and info.
WOW Toni. Not only could you identity the plant, you even knew where it came from. All by looking at a picture. How do you do that? Very impressive!!
