Plant Care
About
Tradescantia Nanouk is a highly popular, fast-growing indoor plant known for its striking, multi-colored foliage of pink, cream, green, and purple. Developed in the Netherlands, it requires bright, indirect light, well-draining soil, and should be watered only when the top inch of soil feels dry to prevent rotting.
Light: Bright, indirect light is crucial. Gentle morning sun is fine, but harsh direct rays will scorch the leaves. Too little light will cause the plant to become "leggy" and lose its vibrant pink variegation.
Watering: Allow the top 2-3 cm (about 1 inch) of soil to dry out between waterings. Soak the soil completely, but always let excess water drain away. These plants are semi-succulent and highly prone to stem rot, so it is better to err on the side of underwatering. Crucial tip: Try to avoid getting water directly on the leaves, as trapped moisture can cause them to go mushy
