Tradescantia fluminensis ‘LAVENDER’
Tradescantia fluminensis ‘LAVENDER’
To be totally honest this one can be a bit difficult to keep perfect. It’s prone to browning and can grow pretty quickly into a patchy monster. I find that the trick is to start new plants often with the nicest stems. Make sure you trim out any all green stems as well to keep the variegation strong.
The Commelinaceae family is an interesting and popular group of plants. Many have brightly colored leaves and make a full hanging plant. They make great houseplants as long as you can provide a brightly lit place for them. The majority of them are fast growing so don't be afraid to trim your plant back periodically. These plants are famously easy to propagate. Any piece of stem will root easily in water or damp soil.
You will receive a plant VERY SIMILAR to the plant pictured. It is growing in a 2.5 INCH POT.
SHIPPING – I have the shopping cart set to automatically combine the shipping. For some reason it
isn’t always perfect. If you are overcharged I will refund you the exact change
after I print the shipping label.
Heat pack information-
I ship out Monday through Wednesday. There are heat packs available in my store that are highly recommended during the winter season. I am in a cold area so I can’t guarantee live delivery without one. When purchasing multiple plants, one heat pack is needed per 4 plants.
