Tradescantia (spiderworts), also known as the “father plant”, is popular because of the different types with varying colors and patterns on the leaves. Tradescantia is related to succulents and shares with them the ability to store water in its leaves, which means that its water needs are minimal. The growth of this plant can be described as ragged, which gives it a playful appearance. Hanging plants are back in fashion, and so Tradescantia renews its charm.
