Light: Provide bright, indirect light to maintain vibrant colors. Too little light causes fading, while direct afternoon sun can burn leaves.
Water & Soil: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch to dry before watering again to prevent root rot.
Humidity & Temperature: Thrives in 40-80% humidity; mist regularly or use a pebble tray. Maintain temperatures above 60ยฐF.
Fertilizer: Feed every 2-4 weeks with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half-strength during spring and summer.

@ZestyWhiteghost I had to learn from trial and error, I feel like I'm better now. I have three, the first one is all green. Second one half and half, the third I finally got right. Hope this helps, good luck! ๐Ÿ˜Š
Grocery Outlet can surprise with its plant selection! It's hit or miss but when it hits, it hits ๐Ÿ˜† The ones near me have had a few different tradescantia in stock recently, and I randomly scored some gorgeous baby Hoyas last year!
