Tradescantia x andersoniana 'Ocean Blue'식물/들꽃-닭의장풀과(Commelinaceae) 2021. 11. 12. 13:07
These exceptional wild flowers do not only offer something completely different for the garden, they are also easy to cultivate and require little care. We are talking about the tradescantia, also called spiderworts. The three-leaf flowers are usually blue or violet, sometimes also pink and white. Some varieties belong to the indoor plants; others are suitable for being cultivated outside.
- Plant family: Commelinaceae
- Genus: Tradescantia
- Trivial names: Spiderworts, spider lily, flowering inch plant
- Origin: South and Central America
- Species: Several dozen worldwide
- perennial, herbaceous plant (some species are succulent)
- Height: 20 to 60 cm
- Flowering period: May to September
- three-leaf flowers in blue, violet, pink or white
- Use: As indoor plant or garden plant (depending on the species)

The blossom of the tradescantia opens only for a single day. But due to the large number of blossoms, this is usually not noticed. This naturally pleasant perennial is popular for its decorative leaves, which, depending on the species, hang over like a tuft of grass and the extraordinary shaped, often wonderfully fragrant flowers.
