Tradescantia Maidens Blush

The Tradescantia is one of my all-time favourite types of plant! They are easy to care for, add a great pop of colour, and are vigorous growers! 

Plant Care 

Light: Bright indirect light, can tolerate lower light, but won’t grow as well or give you as many lovely colours. The Nanouk can also tolerate a bit of direct sun but not too much or you risk scorching the leaves. 

Watering: Water when the top inch of the soil is dry. This plant likes to be moist but don’t overwater. 

Temperature: 15-27°C is ideal, but it can tolerate down to 10°C

Potting: A well-draining and moisture-retaining mix is best. The Thirst Trap mix is a good fit. 

Hot tips: Tradescantia is an easily propagated plant, which is great as they only have a short life span, so be sure to take cuttings, and your plant will live on forever! 

Pet Friendly: NOPE
