- Light: Tradescantia like bright, indirect light. They need a good amount of light and if they don’t get it, you’ll notice that their leaf markings begin to fade. Direct sun, however, will scorch their leaves
- Watering: Tradescantia love moisture. Don’t ever let your plant get too dry, especially in winter. To keep soil evenly moist, a regular watering schedule is best. Water until water drains through the bottom of the pot, taking care that your plant won’t sit in water
- Temperature: They do best in temperatures raning from 18-24 degrees, however they can withstand higher temperatures. Below 10 degrees and the leaves will start to suffer.
- Humidity: Tradescantia thrive in humidity and they love a regular misting. Leaf tips will turn brown without adequate humidity. Placing the plant on a tray of pebbles in water is one way to ensure ambient moisture
