Description
Tradescantia Sweet Kate brings a burst of color to gardens with its bright gold foliage. This backdrop perfectly contrasts the plant's violet-blue flowers, further highlighted by their sulphur-yellow stamens. Despite each flower's short-lived nature, the plant maintains a prolonged bloom period, thanks to its abundance of buds. Its versatility is evident as it beautifully complements rockeries and water features alike.
