A standard zebrina and an Oyster Plant (Tradescantia spathacea) aka Moses-in-the-cradle. Not sure what the connection is between Judaism and these plant names LOL. This looks like your standard Tradescantia zebrina too, also known as silver inch plant or the antiquated wandering j\*w. But I could be wrong as there’s tons. If you google “tradescantia varieties,” there are tons of reference photos like this, which might help. ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/NPEisyL3xoS47qG1VGRbSyMEYNbpvCsvYEIXvPB8j4I/KNXnsFYdQJu9X7cHw0lzNw.webp?size=large) #### Dani ha respondido el 2025-11-07 Maybe this circled one? ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/NPEisyL3xoS47qG1VGRbSyMEYNbpvCsvYEIXvPB8j4I/MTzSOB4dT0SzC8ifVJ-7-w.webp?size=large) #### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 ha respondido el 2025-11-07 Okay cool thank you so much #### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 ha respondido el 2025-11-07 OMG😩 ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/5A7OWgM6nyZ8PHvm1KUPbj8itNxf6vmJBgk7cbzGZFk/n4pbs6nbR2Sz0zMxUQHtSQ.webp?size=large) #### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 ha respondido el 2025-11-07 🤦‍♀️ ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/5A7OWgM6nyZ8PHvm1KUPbj8itNxf6vmJBgk7cbzGZFk/erlNWgFiTg-DfaP5zn7xuQ.webp?size=large) #### Dani ha respondido el 2025-11-07 Well, I guess that just further confirms that I am correct in deciding not to use the term anymore 😆 I heard people weren’t calling it that anymore so I just stopped, but I never researched it _2 réponses supplémentaires dans l'app_ ### Crazy plant lady a commenté le 2025-11-07 I have one, it’s the burgundy wandering “dude” #### Crazy plant lady ha respondido el 2025-11-07 ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/wsiBWdWWuSAxTYTBm9QPYArkl1vHLBDGtncejiF7b7k/Tmcb9cuHR8KKeWQTHsPCAA.webp?size=large) #### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 ha respondido el 2025-11-07 LOL I like that better wandering dude lol ### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 a commenté le 2025-11-07 This is my baby I think it's in the same family my spider web cobwort, I got it some cuttings in the mail and I had it in water for a few weeks and it flowered so beautiful and it's so fuzzy and beautiful but then I put it in soil because it said that it wouldn't do good in water for very long.. and it's really not doing good in the soil 😩😭🤦‍♀️💜 ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/5A7OWgM6nyZ8PHvm1KUPbj8itNxf6vmJBgk7cbzGZFk/RzOSdglWSnyHZmqPEt-3Hw.webp?size=large) ### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 a commenté le 2025-11-07 This is my baby I think it's in the same family my spider web cobwort, I got it some cuttings in the mail and I had it in water for a few weeks and it flowered so beautiful and it's so fuzzy and beautiful but then I put it in soil because it said that it wouldn't do good in water for very long.. and it's really not doing good in the soil 😩😭🤦‍♀️💜 ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/5A7OWgM6nyZ8PHvm1KUPbj8itNxf6vmJBgk7cbzGZFk/u1NwIKwLTaWpcOlE-lBlTA.webp?size=large) ### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 a commenté le 2025-11-07 Then I would say for sure mine has to be the regular one like you guys were saying cuz it's a dark purple not a light purple ### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 a commenté le 2025-11-07 🤣🤷‍♀️welll ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/5A7OWgM6nyZ8PHvm1KUPbj8itNxf6vmJBgk7cbzGZFk/t0EUYQwmTTqVKXmYr-MPfg.webp?size=large) ### 🪴 Botanical Bekka🌵 a commenté le 2025-11-07 I lightened the original picture ![Pièce jointe 1 sur 1](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/5A7OWgM6nyZ8PHvm1KUPbj8itNxf6vmJBgk7cbzGZFk/x8wYwdrASw-3b2K_u-xMBQ.webp?size=large) --- _La communauté Planta (https://getplanta.com).
