We love the Tradescantia Plants! They are so fun and colorful and easy to care for also!

Lighting: Tradescantia Plants are happiest in bright indirect light. The more light they get the brighter their leaves will be. Make sure you do not give them direct light though, they will burn very quickly and may not be able to recover.
Water: We wait to water our Tradescantia until the top 2-3" of soil is dry. The one thing to note is if you keep yours in very bright light it will show it needs more water by lsoing color.
Temperature: Growing best in temps between 60-80F. Pretty easy in our opinion!
