Tradescantia Zebrina, also known as wandering jew or inch plant, is a popular indoor trailing plant known for its attractive foliage. Here are some care tips for Tradescantia Zebrina:

  1. Light: This plant prefers bright, indirect light, but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

  2. Watering: Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain away.

  3. Humidity: Tradescantia Zebrina prefers high humidity levels, so consider using a humidifier or placing a tray of water near the plant to increase humidity.

  4. Temperature: This plant prefers warm temperatures between 60-80°F (15-26°C).

  5. Soil: Use a well-draining soil mix that retains some moisture.

  6. Fertilizer: Fertilize once a month during the growing season with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.

  7. Pruning: Pinch back the stems to encourage bushier growth and prevent legginess. You can also prune the plant to control its size and shape.

  8. Propagation: Tradescantia Zebrina is easy to propagate. Simply take stem cuttings and root them in water or soil.
