Talk:Tradescantia spathacea

The description section matches the picture at the bottom of the page, however if you follow the 1st external link in references section the picture the plant is completely different:

Upper Picture wrong?
I doubt, the upper pic is not really Tr. spathacea, compare the German article's pic and the description here below: No purple color is found underneath the leaves and it has single flowers and T. spathacea usually displays bell shaped inflorescence agregates. 79.255.217.149 (talk) 00:12, 21 November 2021 (UTC)


 * The previous version definitely was T. spathacea - it was a cultivar (formerly botanical variety) called 'Concolor' which lacks the purple leaf undersides. The flowers are in the usual boatlike bracts but each individual flower extends out while it's open, and then folds back down. Regardless though, I agree changing the photo was a good choice because the form with purple undersides is the most common and recognisable. Averixus (talk) 08:18, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

--- To me that purely green plant looked wrong, too. Maybe it really is, e.g., Callisia fragrans? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:3034:13:30DF:1:1:93EF:C9C2 (talk) 19:08, 20 January 2023 (UTC)
