Growing Tradescantia / Wandering Jew Care & Propagation

[@horvathklaudia784]

Thank you for this info dump! I never knew Nanouks were succulents (never read that anywhere, and believe me I've read loads of articles!), and wondered, why it was so hard to keep them alive! This is great!

[@johnorsomeone4609]

Great info! (I especially appreciated the point about random generic plant terms like “evenly moist” being applied broadly, even to plants which don’t want that. It’s like how everyone recomends a 10/10/10 fertilezer for *everything*).

Love those pots Jeff looks sooo pretty with the colours of the plants.

Thank you!

[@ruthdoherty9900]

Awesome, Jeff! I was unaware of these as tradescantias (duh); I have three perennial versions, one of which is native here in Missouri. I love these! I have had the most common versions, cuttings given by friends mostly, one I continue to grow in a teacup on the window sill above my sink, periodically pinching off any mushy stems, changing the water, etc.. One of the many things I love about horticulture - there is always more to learn!

[@judymckerrow6720]

Thank you Jeff. What a wonderful surprise seeing you twice already this week! 💚🙃 I guess I didn’t realize that these were succulents. I guess that’s why the teeny tiny one I forgot to water for about two weeks is still alive, barely. I finally got a shade cloth up on my deck and I’m moving the plants out. I’m sure they’re going to be much happier outside because I had to turn the air on and there’s so much more humidity outside and warmth. Now for them to start putting on growth to make mama happy💚🙃 I love those chipped looking blue pots❤️❤️❤️❤️💚🙃

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Hello Judy! They are very forgiving plants and yes, they grow much more when outside. Aren't those pots cute? I got the pitcher years ago from a store called, Home Goods and drilled a hole in it. The cup I found this past winter at a nursery. Crazy to me that i found one made for home use and one that matches made for plants. Weird right?

[@judymckerrow6720]

Tropical Plant Party I guess it meant you we’re suppose to have both pieces. Hopefully more will find their way to you. I know if I happen to find some they’re coming home with me💚🙃

[@lorellstoneman74]

Pacific Northwest Oregon Coast here....I had one in the house, plain green, grew long and lush, from ceiling to floor, but started taking up too much room. Took cuttings off it and chucked the mother plant next to the house by the driveway in a shady spot. It took off there all summer and I totally expected it to freeze....nope 7 years later its very healthy ground cover and up the wall 3 feet....looks better growing free than it ever did in the house. Who knew? Thank you Jeff.

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Hey Lorell! Y'all up there in the PNW have such great gardens. I can imagine it would grow well for you. I know the pallida volunteers around my yard and garden beds in spring time from clippings from the previous year and im a full zone north of where they are considered hardy. There are actually some beaitiful perennial varieties for my area, i should give them a try. I was thinking about you this morning bc I was looking at pics of my old lotus vines and remembering how beautiful the lotus vines were that I used to see up in Seattle. I know you're in Oregon area, but wondered if you grow them there? They are some of my favorite plants but they don't flower well or even at all down here with the heat.

[@debrabrown7227]

Hi Jeff, loved seeing these plants again, a plant that is often forgotten with all the other plants available. I grew up with wondering dew growing in rockeries in the full African Sun! Plants are a bit limited at the moment, but once I am able to go look at plants will put this on my list. Thanks for the very informative and great video. Hope you well and all your pets are healthy and enjoying the sunny weather! 😁🐾☀️🌈🇬🇧

Well thank you Debra! I bet that was gorgeous! Hope you are doing well!

[@plantsinner5072]

I love these😍. I’ve just started collecting a few of the tradescantia’s and this is my favorite one. Great tips! I started last year with the Zebrina and I couldn't believe how easy they are and how fast they grow ( i cant keep up!)

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Amazing aren't they? They just grow and grow and even if something goes wrong and they fall on death's door, they usually still will rebound if cared for. Love them!

[@gratefulMOMent]

Hey man, love your videos! I’ve had the zebrina for a couple years now and it has been probably one of the most asked for when folks want cuttings from my collection. I have a ton of confidence in these plants. In fact, my daughter has a very pink & purple room so she wanted one in her window. She put it next to her watch chain crassula in a very hot southern facing window. After a few months the zebrina turned out the brightest pinks and purples I’ve ever seen! Like hot magenta!! The crassula shriveled to bits though. (Hey she was only 5 at the time.) Also I just picked up a more tender leafed one that’s more light lavender and white. I usually don’t go for variegated leaves. I’ve been collecting & enjoying plants since I was 20. So 20 years later I’m like “been there done that bought the tshirt”. I only want plants that will be rewarding and I don’t have to babysit their humidity. Thanks for the smiles, gorgeous foliage and any tips for my new find. ✌️

[@TropicalPlantParty]

That's so fun! They are great plants, so much variety and they are really resilient. Thank you!

[@dianahenry3130]

Thank you so much!! Water propagation didn't work out so well. I am very excited to care for mine now. It is in a small pot and the stems are getting very long and want to lay down and hang. The are very thick. Is that okay to just let them grow and try to hang? I am afraid they will snap. I did hear that they like to search for soil to root and get stronger. I have mine up high on an entertainment center for my mom and she loves looking up and seeing the radiant color. Especially when the sun hits it. So beautiful. Thank you again for all your help.

[@twistysunshine]

Tradescantia are so beautiful! I had some issues growing one as a kid, and I want to try them again as a more prepared adult haha

[@TropicalPlantParty]

They are great plants!

[@GrowingSouth]

I have Nanouk, zebrina, and pallida all. The Pallida is in the landscaping and seeds profusely. I end up having baby plants popping up all over the place. It also needs to be pinched back weekly here. The zebrina I use a lot in hanging baskets, and tends to be fragile and slower growing (though not slow in general) than the other 2 species. The Nanouk is outside as well, and just as fast growing as the pallida here.

[@TropicalPlantParty]

I can imagine the pallida would volunteer all over the place in places where they are perennials since here they also pop all over the place. They even show up in springtime from the ones planted the prior the year. ... usually from seeding but sometimes from fallen pieces that rooted wherever they fell behind other plants the year before.

Thank you! I hope you're doing well! So sorry for the delayed reply, I just now am seeing a ton of messages on this video that weren't here a few days ago.

[@MrsPPH]

I love how you potted these! I have the Zebrinas, they were not doing so hot, very leggy so I chopped it up, planted them and moved it a brighter location. I was afraid they wouldn't root for me but so far so good! I would love to have these though. I'm in California so I'll be stalking my local Home Depot 😀 Have a fantastic weekend! Thanks for the video, these brighten up my lunch hour at work!

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Thank you! I hope you can find them, they are so lovely.

[@CommandoPookie]

I trim mine zebrina up and put the trimmings back into the same pot to get my plants to Bush out. Keep the soil moist while they root. They will make it. I do this all the time and mine are SOOO bushy..

[@mysticshining]

Thanks for the video! I am just getting used to growing these... I have a Tradescantia chrysophylla (Baby Bunny Bellies). I didn't know they were succulents so that will help me care for them better :) I'm really starting to love these plants, but the care isn't what I thought... I think what you said is more on target. I'm getting into propagating the way you explained by just laying the potted tendril into another pot. I'm doing it with string of pearls, episcia and this one, it's fun and easier i think. Well, thanks so much- have a great day ;)

[@TropicalPlantParty]

[@TropicalPlantParty]

[@135Bubby]

Your plants have more silver/white than the kind I grow. I grow them all the time. I take cuttings in Fall, letting the actual rooted plant die. I keep the cuttings growing in water inside most of the Winter. Then in Springish I pot them up and then outside in warm weather. Then in Fall, I start all over again. Kansas, 6a.

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Hey Jan! I used to the same with my Zebrina, just much easier than fussing over them in the winter. A few years i even just cut all of the growth out the basket in fall and stored it with my bulbs on a shelf in my garage. When spring came around they would come back just fine once I gave them light and resumed watering.

[@135Bubby]

@@TropicalPlantParty That's amazing! I keep mine in water during the winter. Some do ok, some die. But enough live that I don't need to buy any, come Spring. I think you could grow a stick and it would come back alive, you have such a green thumb!

[@MyCleanLeaves]

This is perfect timing! I just planted some outside!!!

[@trhroo]

Nicole ! I have never thought about it as an outdoor plant. Always had it as indoor. Let me know how it goes-- did you plant in the ground or in a pot ?. I am in Nebraska so kinda same zone as you. Both of you guys--- Big !!! fan of all your videos !! Thanks much and take care,

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Can't wait to see how they grow over the summer. They grow like weeds when they are outdoors!

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Aww! Thank you!

[@sandyg8794]

Hi Jeff! I found a couple of very short pieces of the Tradescantia Zebrina on the floor and brought them home and put them in water and they have turned a dark pink. It took them a while to this, but I was surprised. I think I have the Nanouk. It looked a lot like yours, but it has gotten so leggy that I'm considering getting rid of it, but now may try propagating it and keeping it smaller. It's in the brightest area, but not in direct sunlight. Do you think it might be getting too much light? It was so pretty when I first got it. I, also, didn't realize it is a succulent. I don't have good luck with succulents. Just curious if the snake plants you have planted with them require the same watering, or will you need to separate them later on? They look so pretty together! I love the pots you have them in, too! Great choices! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@TropicalPlantParty]

Hey Sandy! It's leggy but in the brightest area? Usually having a lot of light keeps them from being leggy. Maybe try giving it more light if possible. They like more water than regular succulents, so don't worry about the succulent part. When they get leggy, giving the plant a heavy pruning usually helps because it encourages them to put out more growth from inside of the plant. The snake plants will not want as much water as the tradescantia during winter. So ill probably separate them in the fall. I really shouldn't have even put them in those pots, they'll need to be pruned all of the time, but i wanted them nearby and those pots go around the umbrella pole on my table. ...so I did it anyway. 😁

When I purchased mine it had brown leaves on it but I thought it was beautiful and I could “love” it back to health. I’ve never owned one like this before and I’m terrified about how to prune it without killing it. Any pointers?

[@wjjackson0311]

Saw no reply here but you would have to try and kill it. You can literally cut some leaves to the stem and you’ll be fine! I had a 5inch piece break off so I tore the lower leaves off and it still rooted.

[@tucsonconnie6864]

@@wjjackson0311 Yep. You can usually just snap a length off, but yes - remove any lower leaves before putting the stem into soil (or water!) It'll root in no time. I won't put pieces from it into the compost or eventually it would take over everything!
