Tradescantia zebrina? It’s a gorgeous plant. I don’t think I’ve ever heard it called that though. Maybe some places have stopped using the name.

Always reaching. No shortage of manufactured outrage.

Who is crying? Who has stopped living their life?

The OP asked if people were familiar with this nickname and their thoughts about it. I see nothing wrong with asking a question, or sharing an observation, and getting feedback.

Sigh! Are you serious? Enough of this cancel culture crap. I personally am sick and tired of everything being offensive to the left!! We don't need to cancel every F***ing thing in this country just because someone gets their feelers hurt. Just like every other leftist agenda, their cancel culture agenda is out of control and as an American who still loves this country (especially what this country once was), it saddens me to see the eagerness from many on the left to destroy anyone who offends them or crosses them the wrong way. Ladies let me know if you agree with me?

I would imagine it’s up to Jewish groups to decide if it’s offensive or not. I never really thought about it. Someone else mentioned spiderwort which is the name I’ve heard.

All sorts of people are crying things are offensive and insisting they change. Like it can no longer be called a master bedroom. I'm just over it. Everything is going to offend someone so maybe people should just stop being so sensitive to every little thing.

I thought realtors were the ones not calling it a master bedroom because they feel it will be offensive. Same with football teams changing names or states deciding to remove confederate flags. I live in the south and never understood why southerners were so hung up on it anyhow. In this case if botanists decide the plant should be renamed idc. It’s not going to affect me one way or another tbh. It’s not erasing history; it’s just a nickname.

You could not have worded your response to this post any better than it's worded from you already, and that is a compliment from me😊.

Couldn't have said it better. Everyone's offended by something. We don't need to continue to make a big deal of everything. It's exhausting already.
