The gardening world has many instances where a single common name is associated with more than one plant species, and such is the case with the houseplant we know as spiderwort. The unique name is actually used to refer to several different plant species within the Tradescantia genus, which includes at least 75 different herbaceous perennial plants.

Native to the tropical climates of Mexico, South America, and the Caribbean, some spiderwort plants are regarded as noxious weeds, some are prized as garden plants, and some, like Tradescantia zebrina are grown primarily as indoor houseplants. Like their garden-varieties counterparts, the houseplant varieties produce flowers with three petals.

Tradescantia 'Zebrina' is a highly variegated cultivar whose painterly foliage looks to be stroked with dark green, purple, and silver. Its leaves grow densely along sturdy vining stems and are on the larger side compared with other Tradescantia species. Like most other members of the genus cultivated for growing indoors, Tradescantia 'Zebrina' is very easy to care for, and a vigorous grower and its trailing growth habit make it a great choice for a hanging planter.

PLANT CARE
• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light
• Water: Water when the top 1" of soil feels nearly dry
• Considerations: Bright light will help Tradescantia 'Nanouk' maintain its variegation. Take care not to let it fully dry out

WHAT TO EXPECT
You'll get a healthy Tradescantia 'Zebrina' that meets our rigorous quality standards in a 15cm planter. No two plants are alike, and yours will have its own unique shape, size and personality; expect this natural variation from the photos.
