Diameter Plants Tradescantia albiflora

To keep those vibrant pink, green, and cream colors, this plant requires bright, indirect light. While it can handle some direct sun, too little light will cause the plant to lose its variegation and turn mostly green.

No, the Tradescantia 'Rainbow' is toxic to both cats and dogs. It is best to keep this plant in a hanging basket or on a high shelf where your pets cannot reach the trailing stems.

Regular pruning is the secret to a lush appearance. Simply trim back the trailing stems to encourage the plant to branch out, and you can easily propagate those cuttings in water or soil to create new plants.

This plant prefers moderate watering and is not drought-tolerant. Aim to keep the soil consistently moist but well-draining, ensuring you never let it sit in standing water, which can lead to root rot.

It thrives in medium humidity levels, making it a great fit for most indoor environments. However, it does appreciate good airflow to prevent moisture from lingering on the leaves, which helps keep the plant healthy and free of fungal issues.
