I was weeding today & came upon this tiny EE in the spot where I planted a couple EEs a month ago. I determined it was too much sun & moved them to a shadier spot. The original ones pictured in the first photo on this thread are green. The new plant is purple though. It looks exactly like the purple ones I had planted many feet away. They weren't in the ground long enough for the roots to have spread that far. The mature plants couldn't take the sun, but will this little one be better acclimated to it? It gets hot sun in the afternoon for a few hours, but pretty shady the rest of the day. If I need to move it, how big should it be?
