Hola Martin, bienvenido al TN, buna imagen y bonitos colores. Saludo Sira

Hello Martin,
the plant you have photographed belongs to the family Commelinaceae.
The genus is either Commelina or, more probably, Tradescantia. It is rather difficult to get the *species* right with only a photograph, so I cannot help there.
Finally, I can rule out Switzerland as the country of origin. The plant was introduced to Switzerland as an ornamental plant.
Greetings, Michael
