etc, I don’t think this is a Tradescantia. Besides, I just finished cleaning Tradescantia ohiensis seeds and the symmetry and architecture of this species do not match. It is possible that it could be a different species of Tradescantia, but I don’t think
so.<u></u><u></u></span></font></p>

taking a look at the attached photos. If you know what it is or have any tips or suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it!
