Tradescantia 'Duskwell-minima' care

Tradescantia 'Duskwell-minima' rewards a patient owner: it grows as a slow climber and asks mostly to be left alone.

Give it morning sun with afternoon shade; leaf colour fades noticeably in darker spots. It prefers to be watered weekly in summer and fortnightly in winter, and it will forgive a missed week far better than a doubled one.

It is happiest at occasional misting in dry rooms, potted in rich, moisture-retentive mix. It responds visibly to a monthly feed through the growing season.
