Tradescantia Navicularis – A Cascading Jewel with Magenta Blooms

Tradescantia Navicularis, also known as Callisia navicularis, is a spreading succulent with cascading stems and narrow, fleshy leaves folded lengthwise. Each leaf measures approximately 1 inch long and adds a lush texture to hanging baskets or shallow containers.

In summer, it produces lilac to bright magenta flowers that contrast beautifully with its green foliage. While it prefers moist, well-drained, acidic soil (pH 5–6), it’s surprisingly tolerant of a wide range of garden conditions. Delivered in a ceramic pot, it’s ready to thrive indoors or out.
