Tradescantia Rhoeo spathacea, "Oyster Plant" or "Moses-in-a-Boat" - September 7th, 2006 at 10:30 PM
Can anyone identify this? You can see the purple underside in the bottom-left corner of the picture. My father-in-law said that his fingers became inflamed after touching the plant. I'd like to figure out what this is so we can decide whether to remove it. We live in the Ft. Lauderdale / Miami area. Thanks in advance.
