DESCRIPTION
The beautiful contrast of the patterned, shimmering leaves of the Tradescantia Zebrina on a rusty, old looking planter make for a cool aesthetic and a gift with a difference! Note: the planter is new, made from iron with a rust effect finish and has no drainage hole.
Tradescantia Zebrina is often referred to, like other Tradescantia varieties, by the common name, Wandering Jew. A ground growing plant in the wild, it is a popular houseplant because of its beautiful purple and silver trailing foliage. It’s a great choice for bringing colour to a corner at home.
All Tradescantias need plenty of indirect light to retain its variegation. As it is a fairly easy-going plant, the Wandering Jew can cope with rare occasions of droughts or overwatering. However, to avoid this unhealthy approach, set a regular watering schedule making sure the top inch of the plant’s soil is dry before giving it a good drink.
The leaves of a Wandering Jew are almost succulent-like so humidity is not something to fuss about. But when leaves look shrivelled or brown tips start to appear, occasional misting will be good for the plant.
Important to know: As plants are natural products, form, pattern and colour will vary.
