This species is one of the most succulent and xerophytic, but at the same time one of the most ornamental and exotic species of Tradescantia. Its habitat is dry areas of northern Mexico." Source Wikipedia. I have one potted and really seems to do better when I neglect it than when I care for it. 4 winters now it "dies" and again every spring grows back.
