The Purple Passion Plant



Say hello to the newest addition to my plant family! (I will be doing posts about the others later on.)

I found it at a local Walmart and immediately fell in love with the velvety purple sheen on the leaves. They're also extremely soft to the touch.
I've been missing Halloween and this baby totally has a sort of Halloween look to it. Love at first sight.

Its common name is the Purple Passion Plant or Velvet Plant.
Scientific name : Gynura aurantiaca
Origin: Indonesia.

Information on these plants can be found here.
