Description

Tradescantia Sweet Kate is a captivating perennial, its brilliant gold foliage gleaming prominently. Paired with vibrant violet-blue blossoms, each adorned with striking sulphur-yellow stamens, it creates a visual spectacle that's hard to miss. While each flower only lasts a day, the plant produces numerous buds, extending the bloom time for up to eight weeks. 'Sweet Kate' is incredibly versatile, adding beauty to rock gardens, and enhancing water features like streams or ponds. Its foliage and flowers are eye-catching accents that elevate your landscape.
