Serpil is a painter whose studio was next door to mine in London. We admired each other's plants and decided to swap cuttings in the Fall of 2018. By the following year the Tradescantia zebrina cutting she had given me had exploded into a mini-bush of rich greens and purples.
I managed to bring it from the UK to Lisbon and continued propagating it. This is the fourth propagation of her wonderful gift that keeps giving. This plant has now continued wandering across Lisbon with my Canadian friends.
