From the picture it looks like Tradescantia pallida/Setcreasea purpurea (wandering jew, purple heart, purple queen). You don't mention what zone you're in, but in some states it's considered an invasive weed. To propagate, just break off a piece and stick it in some soil. It does make a truly wonderful houseplant as well as brightening up containers outside in the summer.

We had our 85-year-old floors professionally sanded and finished with Glitsa. It's what our flooring guy called a "Swedish finish" and it was stiiiiiinkay! But it's beautiful, our floors look brand new. The problem is that I'm sure that the guys who applied it were wearing respirators while they spread it; the fumes 24 hours later when I came in to open the windows were awful, and we could smell it when the house had been closed up for at least a month. If you're doing your own work I think I would pick something a little less pungent. Nevertheless, it's a lovely, tough finish. Vicki

@ TONYA FOSTER Kentwood is a good brand that we show at both our showrooms. The look and feel of their products is quite trendy and attractive. I wish wear layer of their engineered floors could be thicker and 2 mm. Sample boards matching actual floor order has been a challenge to floor dealers in the past couple of years. This is why you heard DuChateau sent approval box their dealer/home owner before shipping the actual floor order in the previous part of this discussion. Could you post a picture of sample board and picture of your floor received?

We've been installing Global Gem products for a few years now and have had nothing but success in all applications. We've used it in both commercial and residential properties and everyone seems to love it. The only down side so far is when a customer wants vinyl to match existing traditional looking colors or floors. And the moldings to match arent the best so what I do is buy unfinished and custom match stain for each floor when needed. But the flooring itself is amazing!
