Re: Tradescantia navicularia Solved
Not quite what you are looking for, Tony, but I have plenty of Cyanotis somaliensis if that is of interest (it used to be classified as a tradescantia, with hairy leaves and blue flowers).

Re: Uncarina grandidieri
Great show! What temperature do you keep it at in winter, and when do you water it?
