Water when the top 5cm of soil has become dry. They do not like to dry out completely but can be susceptible to root rot if over watered.

Tradescantia prefer bright indirect light. Too much direct sunlight will burn the leaves, and too little light will result in a leggy plant.

FERTILISING
Feed once a month with diluted standard houseplant fertiliser.

Tradescantia are fine in standard houseplant soil as long as it contains some basic elements to increase drainage, such as perlite.

Standard household temperatures are fine for Tradescantia.
