Tradescantia Sweetness is most likely a cultivar or variety of the Tradescantia genus, which includes popular houseplants like Tradescantia zebrina (Wandering Jew) and Tradescantia pallida (Purple Heart). Compared to other Tradescantia, this variety has smaller leaves about 3cm long and 2cm wide. The purple is a bit more lilac and the green slightly muted, giving it a classy look. The stems are quite densley planted too.
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.
