Family: Commelinaceae This is a somewhat succulent creeping plant with long narrow glossy green leaves covered with distinctive soft white hairs. Sporadic small mauve-blue flowers occur in summer. It's easy to grow and makes a really nice small hanging basket or it can be used as a filler in a succulent dish garden. It should be given bright light and be allowed to dry-out a bit between waterings. It's native to northern Somalia and needs cold protection.
