85:365 Wandering Jew



I grow other plants besides African violets. This is one of my favorite houseplants - it practically grows itself. I have two, large hanging baskets full of this green and purple beauty.

I had one years ago. I put the pot on the porch for the summer and forgot about it. Later I noticed it sent runners down into the garden. They took root, and then what was in the pot died. So it literally "wandered" out of the pot!
