Tradescantia sillamontana - a surprisingly cold hardy tropical annual

Tradescantia sillamontana is so much more cold tolerant than I expected. I figured it would only survive in a mild spot in the garden, but these are popping up right next to my lawn which is very cold and wet all winter. Although they’re sold



as annuals, they can definitely take some cold
