The Tradescantia multiflora 'Purple Bridal Veil', also called purple bridal veil, is a superb ornamental plant known for its lush and colorful foliage. It is distinguished by its trailing stems adorned with small oval dark green leaves on top and intense purple on the underside, creating a spectacular contrast.
As it grows, the plant forms a dense and elegant cascade, ideal for hanging baskets or bright shelves. It produces tiny white flowers surrounded by purple bracts, which gives it a vaporous effect reminiscent of a veil - hence its poetic name.
It appreciates a temperate atmosphere and good air circulation. It is recommended to pinch the stems to stimulate branching and maintain a dense habit.
