Tradescantia

Tradescantia are fast-growing, colourful houseplants valued for their bold foliage and easy propagation. They naturally trail or spread, making them ideal for hanging baskets, shelf edges, or mixed containers. With consistent light and regular trimming, tradescantia stay full and compact.

Caring for Tradescantia ‘Nanouk’

 Light Needs

Bright, indirect light helps maintain strong pink and purple tones. Too little light can cause fading, while harsh direct sun may scorch the leaves.

 Watering

Allow the top few centimetres of soil to dry out between waterings. Tradescantia prefer consistent moisture but should not sit in wet soil.

 Feeding

Fertilize once or twice a month during spring and summer with an all-purpose houseplant fertilizer. Reduce feeding during fall and winter as growth slows.
