0:30.4 | What house plant would you not want to be without? |
0:34.0 | I think for me, it would be my Tradescantia Zabrina, |
0:40.3 | which is an absolutely beautiful plant. The really rich colours of the foliage are gorgeous, but also one of my favourite things is I can always mess around with it, just clip little bits off to keep it all bushy. |

1:37.3 | Brilliant, just desserts. And it turns the nutrition that they provide into beautiful, purply, movey kind of flowers and it just sits there and I'm |
