Tradescantia
Tradescantia is a colorful, fast-growing plant known for its trailing vines, striped or variegated leaves, and seriously low-maintenance personality. It’s a favorite for hanging baskets, shelf displays, and adding a pop of purple, silver, or green to any room.
Watering Tips
Likes consistent moisture, but hates soggy roots. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. In winter, let it dry out a bit more between waterings.
light requirements
Loves bright, indirect light—brings out the best color. Tolerates some direct sun, especially morning light. In low light, colors will fade and the plant may become leggy.
Tips & tricks
Appreciates moderate humidity, but adapts well to typical indoor levels. Ideal temps: 60–80°F. Avoid cold drafts and temps below 50°F.
info
Mildly toxic to pets and humans. Can cause mouth irritation or skin contact reactions in some pets. Best to keep it out of reach if you have curious chewers.
