My Wandering Jew Decorating my Kitchen Sink- and Living Room View. This is one of the easiest plant to grow even if you do not have a GREEN THUMB.
SEVEN THINGS EVERY ONE WITH A WANDERING DUDE (TRADESCANTIA) NEEDS TO KNOW
1. Tradescantia are virtually unkillable. They are the perfect houseplant for forgetful owners.
2. They are easy to propagate and start new plants. They'll send out new roots from any node.
3. In fact, Wandering Dudes can help you root other plants. The juice in the stems are natural rooting hormones so squeeze this juice onto any cuttings you are trying to propagate to stimulate root production.
4. Until recently, the Wandering Dude plant was known as a Wandering Jew. This terms is still often used, but we choose not to.
5. Tradescantia have tiny three-petaled flowers in shades of blue, purple, pink, and snowy white. The flowers bloom for a day, but when many bloom at once, it creates stunning points of color against the dark emerald leaves. Some varieties bloom more than others.
6. Tradescantia leaves often fade from vivid purple to white when there is too much or too little light.
7. There are over 75 varieties of Tradescantia for growing inside and out.
