Under this name there are many cultivars of tradescantias, which have characteristic stripes. The color of these tradescantias changes when exposed to light, so to enjoy their intense colors, they need a lot of sun or other lighting. For this reason, it is often difficult to identify a specific cultivar. They root very quickly in water (often the first roots appear on the next day).
