I love love sharing my plant w/ friends and neighbors.
I love Purple. Beautiful 💜 Plant. I do not get anything but early rising Sun-& about an Hr. or less all day, then it goes around the side of the house all day. I need shade plants, but passed this on by sharing w/ those who do get sun.😃
Beautiful video...I love this plant and grow it all around my yard. Thank you!
So nice of you. I can have in summer but sure not in winter in Ohio.
Great video. I just got 2 hanging basket of this from the clearance rack. They were so green I wasn't sure if this is what they were. Label only said ,foliage. Glad I got them and found your video, you covered everything . thank you. 😍
I appreciate how detailed the info is.thank you
OMG IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!! Nicely done!!!!
God bless you, ma'am.
If I'm not mistaken, the more sunlight, the more purple.
So...Ohio...😬
✝️
Thanks for your video. I learned so much, especially a close up of where to cut because I'm just getting into live plants.
Glad it was helpful!
Beautiful ♥️
Thank you for the tutorial,, I have 3 outside but I will be bringing them in before the first frost
Good luck! And may you have many blooms this year.
@@thehypertufagardener and it’s an awesome hearty plant . I love the gold glare it gives off when the sun hits it ❤️
One question. Why do you need a TV when you have such beautiful plants? 🤩🌱😀
Why not? I can watch my YT channel on a giant screen and see my plants really huge! And besides, that, what would the other household members do without a TV? Men have to see sports HUGE! Lots of room for my plants too.
Thank you So very pretty. I love them I did find the purple tends to get leggy and needs to be pinched back a lot , but beautiful, you have such good light which I don’t have downstairs .
Thanks so much. I really love the colors and I am starting so many plants. Too many. But I can't help it. 😍
I know they’re addictive. But keeps life fun!
I was out in my yard and came across this beautiful plant! It’s growing wild in my back yard, & I was curious as to what kind of plant it was. I’m so excited that it is easy to grow and I’m going to be propagating it soon! 💜 Thank you so much for your informative video! 🙏🏻🥰 Your Purple Heart plants are Beautiful!! 💜🪴
So nice of you
Thanks for the great info in this video and your plants are beautiful !!
I just asked a co-worker 2 days ago if she could bring me a cutting and she gave me 3 cuttings.I put them in a little jar with some water so hopefully they'll make some roots .
I live in OH too by the way.
It only takes a few days for roots to come. And make more cuttings as quickly as you can. You will love it when they all start blooming.
Thank you ❤
No problem
Came here from watching your youtube stories 😊
Thanks, I have tried a few but only one has really took off!
does this need more than black earth? my wandering jew is in black earth, sand, lava beads and bark mix. it was what i had in an empty pot and i thought it would be ok as it was mostly black earth. i'm wondering if the purple heart would be ok in same soil mix
I've had my purple hearts in just plain old regular (actually cheap to be quite frank haha) soil for years. I've unfortunately neglected them for way too long and not taken proper care of them (I'm trying to learn and fix it now tho) but these suckers dont quit. Mine grew to literally 8 ft, I have them on a shelf hanging and I had to just kinda loop it around itself but finally chopped it a yr or so back...just chopped them indiscriminately bc they were drooping on my stove top lol, but its grown back like nothings happened. These are VERY hardy plants in my experience. I dnt think your soil mix will hurt them or even be able to slow them down! Lmao
I love your plants.
Thanks so much!
@@thehypertufagardener ,i had purple heart.but i cut it and put it in water to root to grow.The stem became soft and smuchy. Yucky
@@sweetblackeyepeas7363 You can try cutting off the yucky part and try to root again? or take another cutting? I have had them work just pushing the cutting down into the soil too!
First like :)
The real name is: Setcreasea Purpurea! I have the big one! Wonderful!
I think they are synonymous and refer to the same plant. The Setcreasea is just an older name. But what's in a name, right? Love it as Purple Heart.
How much dirt have starts to share.
Most of mine are green and have large leaves.
A few purple flowers
Sounds beautiful!
Hi Kim
saw one of these at the nursery had no clue what it was just knew I wanted it haha
It’s nice to know I can grow it inside as well as outside 😊👍
Your video was very helpful. Thank you so much.
Is there any particular type of potting mix you use or does it matter?
Thank you again
So nice of you! I just use any well-draining mix cause I love to water. My bad.
Hello Kim. Thanks for the great video. I have seen some articles on folks growing this in ground in Ohio. Do you have any experience with it growing in ground? I wonder if a heavy layer of leaves and mulching would protect them during the winter months.
I have put them outside for summer, but the first frost kills them. So I just take cuttings and ending of summer.
How close can I have both kinds to the window?! I don’t have a lot of area but I don’t want to kill them by being 2-12 inches from the window, especially during the winter living in Indiana!
Test the temperature there and see if it gets too cold in winter or too hot in summer. Then place farther away if needed.
Am si eu planta asta si o iubesc mult

I got a bit of translation via /www.reverso.net/ . It only gave me the first 2000 words. Transcript is under video. You might try putting the rest in it? ---Am primit un pic de traducere prin /www.reverso.net/ . Mi-a dat doar primele 2000 de cuvinte. Transcrierea este sub video.

Could you please help me?? I love my 'Purple Heart Plant' and it does wonderfully outside. However when I bought it in for the winter it started going downhill pretty quickly 😢. I bought a full spectrum grow light just for it, but it is still not doing well 😞. How far away should the light be from the plant? Lowest light level? Mid level? What? My apartment is like living in a cave and at the most, I get maybe 1 1/2 hours of sun in the evening, knock the time back to 45 min on a bright clear day as the days get shorter.... I'm seriously thinking about cutting every bit of it back into cuttings for a fresh start. Help please! You are the only one I have found who has your Tradescantia under lights.......
I have some trouble adjusting mine too. Outside they are good in bright and get really purple, but inside I move and move them until I get the right color. Right now, she is in an area where she doesn't get strong light. Had her under a grow light and she lost her "purple." Now she is about 10 feet away from a window that is sunny from the west. No extra light. If they get lanky, just pinch, root, and grow more. They root for me in 1-2 days in water. Have to control myself from creating too many. Wishing you good luck with yours. (In the video, my house had a basement and those lights and a constant temperature was wonderful for them. Don't live there anymore, no basement. Dealing with slightly higher temps and maybe drier humidity now.)
@@thehypertufagardener thank you! I'll never give up on them!!
I have mine in the sun with grow lights, and she looks sad still. I water only when dry so I don’t know what’s the problem 🤦🏻♀️
Maybe a little too much light?
Can you plant seeds
I think there may be seeds but I have not tried it.
I’m so disappointed. I ordered two cuttings of this plant and first tried rooting them in soil, but even after several weeks, nothing happened. The leaves are curled inward at the sides. Then, I tried dipping the stem bottoms in rooting hormone and putting them in water, but only one got a very small root system (stilled curled) and the other one, again nothing. I just re-cut the bottoms to start fresh again. I don’t think they’re dead, but close. I now have them in a pot with soil and am hoping for the best. 😒
Keep trying. Maybe a longer stem portion and be sure it has leaf nodes on it because that is where the roots will grow from. Mine is blooming a lot and I am anxious for it to get warmer so she can go outside for the summer.
@@thehypertufagardener I’ll give it a go. Wish me luck!
Any new growth? I’ve had mine for over a week and nothing. They’re starting to dry out. I also have mine in perlite after leaving them in water.
@@longhairdontcare3606 My cuttings from water are planted and growing well. In fact, they are growing through the shelving they are getting so big. Not sure what might be the problem. Enough light? Any root growth at all?
Sounds like they're not getting enough light. If the cuttings are small to begin with, loose well-draining soil works better than water. I managed to get a few nice plants out of the spindliest sickliest looking cuttings that were somehow hanging on while growing in water only. (You'd not even recognize them as the same, as the starter plant was so small and pale.)
Also for growing cuttings - one or two nodes (where leaves come out of - but with leaves removed) at the base , and at least three leaves above the bare nodes where the roots should start.
POR FAVOR SOY DE CHILE Y QUISIERA K FUERA EN ESPAÑOL
On desktop, click wheel under video and change captions to Spanish. I don't see how to do that on mobile . But then try on iphone, go to settings, accessibility, Live captions, click that and turn them on. That will Live caption everything when you go back to RUclips. (If you have the iphone 16 update already, if not just update.) I hope that helps for you.
