Looking for this plant or the correct name for it. I had one before and it had runners on it like the spider plant. It was green but with some sun, would get purple in the leaves. I do not have a picture of it.

Not sure if it's sometimes called Scotsman Pipe...but sounds like Callisia fragrans.

I've never heard of any plant called Scotsman Pipe and when googling can't find anything. I think Nan may be right ... sounds exactly like Callisia fragrans (Basket Plant): [HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com]

You are both correct! You don't know how long I have been trying to figure this out. It was sold to me under the name. Thanks much!
