Tradescantia pallida 'Purple Heart' (Purple Spiderwort) - This popular trailing house plant is also a pretty durable groundcover or accent plant to about 18 inches tall in the garden. It has 2 to 5+ inch long, narrow pointed purple leaves arranged alternately along thick herbaceous segmented stems. The leaves are covered in soft pale hairs the their bases form a sheath around the stems. The three petaled purple-pink flowers with yellow stamens arise among the leaves near the tips of the branches primarily in summer but can often be seen at other times in frost free gardens. Plant in light shade or part sun in most any soil type and water regularly to occasionally - surprising drought tolerant for such a tropical looking plant. The leaf color varies with amount of sun and water with the best color in the brightest light. Hardy and evergreen in frost free gardens but will freeze back in colder locations - root hardy to 10°F or less - some claim it will grow as a perennial in USDA Zone 6, where mulching to protect the crown is advantageous. This attractive and unusual colored plant makes a great hanging pot specimen or as a creeping groundcover with bold color for the sun or shade garden. Some consider this plant from eastern Mexico to be invasive, but we have never seen it get out of hand and it has behaved quite well in our garden for over 25 years. The stems are a bit fragile so break it brushed against or walked on but the plant grows rapidly and so covers up damage in short order. Though not particularly dangerous, the juices of this plant have a skin irritant that can cause a rash or blisters and has been used in the past to cosmetically redden a person's cheeks. This plant is native to a wide area of Mexico from Tamaulipas east to Veracruz and south to the Yucatan peninsula. The name Tradescantia honors John Tradescant the elder (1570s-1638), an 17th century English naturalist, who was a collector and traveler and the gardener to the Earl of Salisbury and who traveled to Virginia in 1617. The species name pallida is from the Latin word 'pallidus' meaning "pallid" or "pale" in reference to the pale flowers of the species compared to other Tradescantia. This plant was originally described as Setcreasea pallida in 1911 by the American botanist Joseph Nelson Rose, famous for his work in Mexico on the Cactaceae. The cultivar name 'Purpurea' is a synonym and it also goes by the common names Purple Secretia and Purple Queen. The information provided on this page is based on the research we have conducted about this plant in our nursery library, from what we have found about it on reliable online sources, as well as from observations of our nursery crops of this plant as well as of plants growing in the nursery's garden and those in other gardens. We also will incorporate comments received from others and welcome getting feedback from anyone who may have additional information, particularly if this information includes cultural information that would aid others in growing Tradescantia pallida 'Purple Heart'.

Great ingredients - very strong scent
Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have really dry skin and frequent eczema so ordered this lotion to try out. I use a standard colloidal oatmeal lotion typically and it's hard to find a good lotion that doesn't have petrolatum. This one uses olive and jojoba oils instead. I ran it through a product safety app and it scored a 93/100 which is REALLY good for an eczema lotion - the only potential problematic ingredient is peppermint leaf which can be an allergen for some folks. It comes with a pump for easy use and I didn't find the lotion too greasy or oily - it seemed to absorb well. My only problem with the lotion is how strong the tea tree oil scent is - I use eczema lotion at bedtime and the smell was so strong, it was keeping me awake. If you're sensitive to tea tree oil, that could be an issue. But it's great for daytime use and has a nice, fresh scent. It's preventing the dryness and cracking on my hands that typically happens with "normal" lotions so the oat kernel flour is doing its job. As long as you don't have an aversion to a strong tea tree oil scent, this is a perfect eczema lotion. I've only ever found a handful of them that don't use petrolatum and I appreciate that this one uses plant oils instead. It works to keep the hands from drying or cracking. The price tag is on point with the other eczema lotion I use with it currently being $21 for 16 oz. Definitely recommend this if you are looking for an ingredient-safe eczema lotion.
