Tradescantia occidentalis
Prairie Spiderwort (Tradescantia bracteata) is a perennial forb native to Midwestern and Plains US states (such as Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, and Illinois) that can thrive in USDA Zones 3–8. Reaching a mature height of 1–1.5 feet with an upright clumping growth habit, it features grass-like green leaves and produces bright blue, purple, or rose three-petaled flowers. It thrives in sandy to loamy dry prairies, roadsides, and open fields and is ideal for prairie restoration, dry slope stabilization, and early-season pollinator forage.
