This is a seedling I grew from seed of the above plant. Just a common houseplant but I've never grown one from a seed before Smiling . It ended up growing in essentially full sun. The parent grows in heavy dappled shade under an oak. The fuzz isn't quite as thick and it's got a bit more green than the parent, but those may be due to the difference in growing conditions or the age of the plant. The sillamontana grew true to type, I think. I repotted it last week since it was growing in a container with a small Meyer lemon. I thought it did well for a seedling and the conditions it was given to grow which were geared for the lemon, not Tradescantia.
