Couldn't load pickup availability
Concord Grape Spiderwort (Tradescantia × andersoniana ‘Concord Grape’) is a clump-forming herbaceous perennial valued for its rich grape-purple flowers and graceful, grass-like green foliage. Its distinctive three-petaled blossoms feature contrasting golden-yellow stamens, creating an attractive display above slender, arching leaves.
This ornamental perennial typically blooms from late spring into summer. Individual flowers are short-lived, but successive buds help extend the seasonal display. Its compact, fountain-like growth habit makes it an appealing addition to perennial borders, cottage gardens, woodland edges, and mixed flower beds. The flowers also attract visiting pollinators.
Supplied as one live Concord Grape Spiderwort in a quart nursery pot (QT), this plant generally performs best in full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. Afternoon shade may be beneficial in warmer regions. As an herbaceous perennial, it may naturally lose its aboveground foliage during winter dormancy.
