Tradescantia (trad-es-KANT-ee-uh) divisions

I have to go in to work earlier than normal today so am putting this on now. It got cool overnight after two days of heat so it'll be a nice day at the garden center. I need to try not to "find" anything else to get! :-)

I'm not sure where I'm going to put this plant but it has nice flowers and it looked like a good plant to get to learn and, again, the ability to divide it and make many little plants from one pot is always appealing to someone who has to be careful about how many plants they buy.
This is Tradescantia 'Marielle Andersoniana'.

Here is the plant out of the pot. The roots are sort of fleshy which is usually a good sign for dividing, especially in summer.
