Tradescantia zebrina 'Tikal'

Recently, there has been a lot of talk about the 'Tikal' cultivar. Mainly due to the virus that every plant of this cultivar has (all plants of this cultivar are probably from one plant that is infected with virus). Unfortunately, there is still no medicine for viruses in plants. Little is known about this virus, so people who want to buy it should consider whether they can provide it with the right conditions. And people who have this plant should be especially careful not to infect other plants. The virus is inactive at higher temperatures. This does not mean that the plant is healthy, it just looks better.
