OMG I actually HAVE THIS!!! I bought a couple of these at the Jenks herb and plant festival this spring. It is beautiful. Please tell me what to do to help. Do I just hack off a peice?

Okay this is another time I really wished this forum had an edit feature. I hav two plants that resemble your plant, and somehow I morphed them together in my mind.

I am not sure what #2 is but I don't think it is purple heart, however if you want it, you are welcome to it. It is a gorgeous plant.

Your plant looks like this:

I have two regular purple hearts, and varigated versions of another purple plant (pics follow). I am so sorry I got excited and jumped the gun before I double-checked. I know that when you have your heart set on a plant it is amazing to find it :(.

Can you help me find it?? Here in Italy it is impossible to find!

Sorry I can't help you with finding it but can help by posting your photo.

Romitta, did you ever get your hands on a Tradescantia pallida 'Variegata' Variegated Purple Heart plant? I'm growing one, I can send you a piece once I get it to grow larger. Let me know if you are still looking, I can send you one.. :)
