| now I'm not so sure it's not just an interesting weed. Perennial, evergreen, thick, fleshy, snaps/roots easily. Going by "majority rules" on google images, doesn't seem to be Callisia repens, Tradescantia gibasis or T. fluminensis.
Pics & discussion.
TIA! |

| Still unsure about this, if anybody has any other suggestions. Thanks! |

| Thinking it's Callisia repens(assuming current horticultural naming is correct). |

| The leaves on this seem more pointed, lighter green, red-edged, the stems so red. Maybe there's just something unhealthy with this plant, starting to think so, or it's just rare to have it in full sun. Apparently C. repens is perennial here. |
