    Wandering Dude. Lol. I like that. That’s what I’m going to start calling that instead of the other name.

      Somebody in the comments lobbed me that common name and I ran with it. Hahaha

      That’s funny. My gf’s cousin gave us the plant and says she calls it “wandering dude”, instead.

      Initially called wandering Jew, but people have started to take offense to that, so it’s been substituted for wandering dude. You’ll still hear Jew more often.

    Grandmother loved these plants and yeah you can literally throw them in the ground then just water them in for about a week then leave them.

    This is my “signature plant”! I love her so much. She’s my two favorite colors: green & purple! She’s juicy! She’s happy in lots of sun. She breaks and regrows. I placed her on my dads altar with his military photos and his purple heart and other military medals 🎖️ it always leans towards him too❤

    Dawg that parple Plantu gonna look sick when filled en. Cuttings=free! I'm sure that parking strip is your property BUT if a tree is near enough, the city should be able to cut it back. Happy New Year!🎉"Urth es ma plont!"

    Man, your content is AWESOME!!! I have some of those purple hearts in my flower bed as well. They are very low maintenance, drought tolerant and freeze resistance. Now they will die back if it freezes, but there's not need to worry because once it warms back up, they will simply regrow!!

    man, I have a ton of wandering jew in a section under the side of a larger bush next to the house. Haven't relocated any since I focusing on more visual lawn than a creeper. Been using more Texas sage and about to plant an Italian cypress close to 3 blue point juniper trees.

    Oh my gosh … I’m a Dublin Tx retiree… I just discovered the purple wandering dude 😂 this year!!! I’m still struggling trying to find plants that will take to my dry hot yard !!! I have great expectations for this beautiful plant … And I plan to help it spread all around ! Wish me luck !!!
    I’d be interested in any other crazy hardy plants like this purple dude that thrive here ??? ❤❤❤❤

      Propagating in Texas will not work. The summer is two dry and hot. You have to start with a fully developed plant in early spring and then water it like mad through the first two summers to get it established enough.

    Totally hope that you'll want some free companions to the purple dudes, like my pink rain lilies, red spider lilies, and red rain lilies.... I'm in Houston.

    Love your content. I'm from Houston, and I know that ornimental sweet potato could be used as a groundcover crop. Edible, but the taste depends on many things. Have you tried growing wild violets such as Viola Odorata? They're pernenials and can make up for annuals and/or deciduous landscapes with other qualities included.

    • @paulplantu
      @paulplantu  9 місяців тому

      No I never heard of them! I’m going to definitely do some research! Thanks for the suggestion

      I know that’s so cool to think about. It’ll shine for a couple of years until the trees get big and distort the satellite view

    I would’ve given you mine for free . I don’t like them and can’t get rid of them they keep growing back no matter how many times I pull them out lol

    • @paulplantu
      @paulplantu  9 місяців тому

      Hahaha, they are very prolific to say the least. You just need to dig them out, deeply and or smother the area. Why don’t you like them?
