Tradescantia 'Brevifolia-minima' care

Collectors know Tradescantia 'Brevifolia-minima' for its steady pace; it keeps a slow climber even in imperfect corners.

Give it medium filtered light; leaf colour fades noticeably in darker spots. It prefers to be watered sparingly, letting the pot dry almost through, and it will forgive a missed week far better than a doubled one.

It is happiest at 55% humidity or higher, potted in a free-draining cactus-leaning mix. Propagation is straightforward from stem cuttings rooted in water.
