The purple plant is alright. It is a Tradescantia pallida a very resistant plant and perfect as a hanging plant. Its colors depend on how much light it receives
It likes to be kept tight in its pot, do not water a little everyday but a lot every two weeks during the summertime. It likes slightly tepid water.

The flowers are a beautiful pink. It is toxic like all tradescentia. Put it in a place where you will not have to manipulate it because it breaks very easily.
You can put the broken parts in a glass half full of water with a piece of wood coal to keep the water clean and soon it will root in the water.
Google its name for more special care information but it really is one of the easiest indoor plants to grow.

Hope this helps !
