Wekiva Foliage Tradescantia Spiderwort

This plant requires bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant pink variegation. If the light is too low, the pink hues will fade and the stems may become leggy as they stretch toward the light source.

Tradescantia varieties are generally fast growers. Once it acclimates to your home, you can expect it to begin trailing quickly, especially during the spring and summer growing seasons.
