Tradescantia 'Nanouk'

Meet my sweet Tradescantia 'Nanouk'! This little lady is a low-growing, trailing perennial with the most striking purple-green variegation and violet leaf undersides. She's a real showstopper, if I do say so myself.

Lighting: Tradescantia 'Nanouk' loves bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can be too harsh, so a sheer curtain or a spot near an east or west window is perfect.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Don't forget to water the leaves too, they love a good misting!

Humidity: This plant thrives in a humid environment, typically above 50%. You can place the pot on a tray filled with water and pebbles to increase the humidity around it.

Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix to prevent waterlogged soil. A mix specifically designed for indoor plants or tropical plants works well.

Fertilizer: Feed your Tradescantia 'Nanouk' with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer). Dilute the fertilizer to half the recommended strength to avoid burning the roots.

Temperature: Keep your plant in an area with a consistent temperature between 65°F to 75°F (18°C to 24°C). Avoid placing it near heating or cooling vents, fireplaces, or drafty windows.

With a little love and the right conditions, your Tradescantia 'Nanouk' will be happy and thriving in no time!
