Start a colorful windowsill with a trio of live Tradescantia. Small leaves in the assorted plants may show green, silver, pink or purple tones and striped or solid patterns, depending on availability. Their stems can spread and trail as they grow, making three separate little pots easy to arrange around a bright room.
Points of interest and size
- Three separate live plants, each in its own 2-inch nursery grow pot. Varieties and leaf colors vary with availability; photos show examples rather than a fixed combination.
- Estimated mature indoor trailing length: around 1–2 feet per plant with suitable care and regular trimming.
- Each starter plant has its own growth habit, markings and fullness.
Care guide
- Light: Give bright indirect or filtered light for colorful, compact growth. Gentle morning sun can suit acclimated plants; avoid prolonged harsh afternoon sun.
- Water: Check the small pots frequently. Water when the top inch of mix starts to dry, then let excess drain fully; avoid soggy roots or letting the pots stay bone-dry for long periods.
- Soil: Use a light, well-draining indoor potting mix with perlite in containers with drainage holes.
- Humidity and temperature: Average household humidity is generally suitable. Keep warm and away from cold drafts and hot drying vents.
- Feeding: During spring and summer growth, use balanced houseplant fertilizer diluted according to its label every 4–6 weeks. Reduce or pause in winter.
- Pruning: Pinch or trim long stems just above a node to encourage branching and fuller growth. Remove damaged leaves with clean scissors.
- Repotting: Check each pot separately as roots fill it; move up one pot size with fresh draining mix, rather than assuming all three need repotting at once.
- Propagation: Take a healthy stem cutting with nodes and root it in water or lightly moist mix in bright indirect light. Pot up once roots develop.

Keep away from pets and children. The assortment varies and some Tradescantia can irritate skin or mouths.
