Information on plant sizes
All plants are measured from the bottom of the nursery pot to the tip of the plant and if a height is specified, this is an approximate height, not set in stone. As all plants are living things, they will vary in size throughout the year, and we do our best to give a guide as to the size you can expect. If in doubt drop us an email hello@leafculture.co.uk.
Tradescantia zebrina, commonly known as the Wandering Jew or Zebrina plant, is a popular trailing houseplant appreciated for its striking foliage. It belongs to the Commelinaceae family and is native to Mexico, Central America, and Colombia. The name "zebrina" comes from the zebra-like pattern on its leaves, which are typically green with silver stripes on the upper side and purple on the underside.
Easy to care for - it doesn't need a great deal of water or attention and does well sat on a windowledge as long as it doesn't receive too much sun. It does very well in a hanging basket and the stems are too heavy for the plant to support as it gets bigger. Tradescantia Nanouk grows at a moderate pace, so just remember to keep up with the watering regime although don't water too often as this always causes root rot.
Tiip: to create a more bushy plant, simply trim regularly with a sharp pair of scissors.
