Gynura aurantiaca
This plant has dark green leaves with fine purple hairs that give it its vibrant color. It's fuzzy to the touch, and though it appears to be delicate, it's one tough plant. It droops when thirsty, and is easy to propagate.
Medium to bright indirect light.
SM: ~8-12" tall and a 4" pot.
Pro-tip: Leaves will droop dramatically when thirsty. Give it water, and it should perk up within a few hours.

Prince is a beautiful plant and his leaves are so fuzzy and soft like velvet. His beautiful purple added a nice color pop to my plant wall. Unfortunately, Prince did not survive. But, I’m going to get another one and try again.

The whole plant is velvety soft and has a rich purple color, probably a new favorite.

Plant is growing and has gotten taller. It likes being on the plant light bookcase. I'm glad that you had this because I haven’t seen any in DC.
