Not sure specifically which species from the photo - can you give some details on the habitat? Something in Tradescantia sp. Possibly Tradescantia virginiana

Melanie, This appears to be one of the spiderworts (Tradescantia), but I can't tell which one. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tradescantia for more information.
