I'm thinking tradescantia....unless someone else knows different?
I think it will be easier in a day or two when the flower buds open.
I think Tradescampsia also don't know which one will be easier to tell when the colour of the flower appears. Tradescampsia can come in blue,white or a very nice mauve.
Tradescantia - mine's in full bloom at the moment
Tradescantia Sweet Kate to the left of the pic next to Hosta Blue Angel
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Just had a look outside and it's in flower! A lovely purple one. It will go very well in the purple blue border. I can't remember buying it , it was probably one of my "lets put you in a pot and see what happens"..I love plants for free!.
Thanks everyone.Happy gardening !
Love the Blue Angel Dove, what a beauty.
Lovely flower nice leaves but watch out it is a thug which will spread everywhere,mine is kept in a pot and never allowed to set seed.Good luck.
Not a thug here, a bit of a wimp and died out
In the sticks near Peterborough
Thanks Hosta for the name .Thanks for warning ,Tony , might keep it in a pot then, just as well as running out of space in the border..
Not a thug here either, find it hard to keep them going.
