Tradescantia spathacea Dwarf Rhoeo — compact groundcover with purple-green foliage, 200mm pot, Cape Nursery Byron Bay NSW
Tradescantia spathacea Dwarf
Rhoeo Dwarf
Available on enquiry

Tradescantia spathacea Dwarf Rhoeo is a compact, colourful ground cover producing striking rosettes of dark green leaves with vivid purple undersides. An excellent low-maintenance ground cover for subtropical gardens, garden borders, and container planting.

Architectural and structural plants earn their place by doing visual work year-round, regardless of season. Cape Nursery grows this variety with the slow, measured tempo its form demands — avoiding the forced-growth practices that produce weak internode structure, leggy leaders, or root-bound problems downstream. The result is a specimen with the symmetry, density, and foliage quality that designers specify for — and that hold their form after installation, not just at delivery.
