Can someone help me with identifying this plant? When I scan it in the app it says that it is a “purple heart spiderwort” but only the bottom of the leaves are purple. Thanks for any help.

Maybe Tradescantia spathacea

Thank you. I’ll look that one up!

You’ll get a more compact plant with more purple if it’s given more light

It looks like one I have… a tradescantia. Mine was closely bunched until it started getting taller now it’s spaced out like yours. But mine is also growing with elephant ears (a Wegmans special, lol). After 2 years we finally have a 3rd elephant ear popping up but the tradescantia just keeps going up and up😵‍💫
