I am trying to locate some nice Bolivian Jew (Turtle Vine) like you have pictured on your website. What you have pictured is much greener than other Bolivian Jew I’ve seen. Since I can’t seem to find Bolivian Jew this green and “succulent like” in my area, can you sell some to me and ship it to me?
Thanks,
Gerald
Gerald,
It may look greener because new growth on this plant is very green and healthy looking. It should get that purple color you’re looking for with some time.
Gerald, where do you live? I grow tons of this in Florida. I think the photo shows a greener Jew because the description is to grow it in the shade, but I grow mine in direct, noontime sun and it is very healthy and much darker in color.
