I have several Tradescantia species and near relatives but fortunately have never had a reaction to any of them - amazing really given that I seem to be allergic to every second thing in existence! If you are chucking your plants may I be greedy and ask for a sample of each? I'd like to compare yours to my collection and you have at least three there (#1 #2 & #4 which I don't have at all. I do have the yellow leafed cultivar of T. virginiana "Sweet Kate" which is really lovely with its contrasting dark blue flowers, and a couple of furry leafed succulent ones - pity you have to give them up or we could swap. That's one expensive pup you've got there! Here is one of my "furries" for you to see. |
