Tradescantia multiflora ‘Purple Bridal Veil’, also known as purple bridal veil, is a stunning ornamental plant prized for its lush, colorful foliage. It is distinguished by its cascading stems adorned with small, oval leaves that are dark green on top and deep purple underneath, creating a dramatic contrast.
As it grows, the plant forms a dense and elegant cascade, ideal for hanging baskets or light-up shelves. It produces tiny white flowers surrounded by purple bracts, giving it a vaporous, veil-like effect—hence its poetic name.
It thrives in a temperate climate with good air circulation. Pinching the stems is recommended to encourage branching and maintain a dense shape.
