Tradescantia 'Nocturne-seraphine' care

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

Give it bright indirect light; leaf colour fades noticeably in darker spots. Water weekly in summer and fortnightly in winter. Yellowing lower leaves almost always mean too much, not too little.

It is happiest at 55% humidity or higher, potted in standard mix cut with a third perlite. Under good conditions it may flower indoors, though the foliage is the point.
