About
the Spiderwort - Sweet Kate :
The Spiderwort 'Sweet Kate',
Tradescantia, has a brilliant gold
leaf form. This new import from the
UK is taking the gardening world by
storm! The brilliant golden foliage
(brightest in full sun) is
highlighted with a procession of
deep blue flowers from late spring
until fall.
If flowering slows, behead the
plant and it will start to regrow
and flower all over again. Each
plant is a true masterpiece.
Fantastic in shade gardens and
combos. A vigorous grower |
