Tradescantia poelliae
Tradescantia poelliae include perennial wildflowers that are commonly cultivated as ornamental plants in North America and Europe. Some species are used as houseplants while other, more temperate species are used as ground covers in gardens. Because of their easy propagation, some species have become invasive in the Southern U.S., New Zealand, and Australia.
