Artificial Inch Plant (Tradescantia) 25cm — Bold Purple Trailing Colour
Few plants bring colour quite like the inch plant (Tradescantia zebrina) — its leaves are striped in shimmering purple and silver above, with a rich purple underside, for a jewel-toned, almost iridescent effect. Our artificial inch plant, around 25cm, captures that striking colour permanently, and its trailing habit makes it beautiful spilling over a shelf edge, a pot rim, or from a hanging planter. It’s a bold, affordable pop of purple, with no watering, light or care needed.
Real tradescantias are fast-growing but can get leggy and fade without the right light and moisture. This artificial version holds its vivid purple-and-silver colour year-round, in any spot — including the dim shelves and air-conditioned offices where a living one would lose its colour.
Where It Works
- Shelves & sideboards — trailing colourfully over the edge
- Desks & counters — a compact, vivid pop of purple
- Hanging pots & high shelves — its trailing habit shown off
- Offices & retail — bold colour that never needs tending
- As a gift — an affordable, eye-catching plant for any plant lover
Part of Our Colourful-Foliage Range
The inch plant’s purple is one of several bold foliage colours we stock — each distinct. For multicoloured leaves see our Artificial Croton, for pink-and-green marbling the Artificial Caladium, or the red-and-green Artificial Cordyline. Combine a few for a rich, layered colourful display, or browse all small artificial plants and hanging plants.
What You Get
- Height: approx. 25cm, including pot (plus trailing length)
- Foliage: purple-and-silver striped, iridescent trailing leaves
- Assembly: none — unbox, arrange the trails, place or hang
A Note on Placement & Sun
An artificial inch plant suits interiors and sheltered spots — out of direct sun. Prolonged direct sunlight can soften artificial foliage over many months (rich colours like purple especially), so keep it out of a harsh, bright window for the longest-lasting colour. Anywhere shaded or indoors, the colour holds for years.
Care
Dust the leaves gently with a soft dry cloth when they need freshening. No watering, feeding or re-potting — ever.
