The Gynura aurantiaca, or Purple Passion Plant, is known for its incredible colour and texture. Its green leaves are covered in fine, deep purple hairs, which gives them a soft, velvety feel. In bright light, the purple hairs seem to glow, creating a really vibrant effect. As it gets bigger, its stems will start to trail, making it a good choice for a hanging pot or a shelf.
