Growing information:
Tradescantia, also known as Spiderwort, is a genus of flowering plants native to the Americas. With its striking foliage and delicate flowers, Tradescantia Blue and Gold has become a favorite among plant enthusiasts.
Water your Tradescantia thoroughly, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's important to strike a balance.
Tradescantia prefers well-draining soil. A mix of potting soil, perlite, and peat moss works well.
Feed your Tradescantia with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for the correct dosage.
