It matures to an average height of 1 inch to 1 foot and an average width of 3 feet to 4 feet, depending on climate and other environmental factors. It prefers growing in a location that provides full sun and grows best when planted in sand, loam or clay soil that is well drained or moderately drained. The foliage is purple in color.

Purple Hearts can be useful in the landscape in mass plantings, in containers or planters, as a border or edger, around decks, swimming pools, and other outdoor living areas, as a groundcover, in hanging baskets, in landscape beds or islands, in small groupings or in annual flower beds and also in rock or xeriscape gardens, theme gardens, cottage gardens or perennial gardens.
