Should I Mist Tradescantia?

Tradescantia thrive in humidity and they love a regular misting. Leaf tips will turn brown without adequate humidity.

How often should I mist tradescantia?

Feel free to mist your plant frequently. If the humidity is too low the leaves will start to brown. Tradescantia Zebrinas prefer average to warm temperatures of 55–80 degrees during the day and above 50 degrees at night. Feed once every month during the spring and summer with a liquid fertilizer for indoor plants.

Should I Bottom water tradescantia?

Tradescantia plants don't like a wet crown.

If you want to be extra careful, you can choose to water from the bottom rather than the top. Bottom watering is as easy as filling a tray or cache pot with water and let the plant soak it up through the drainage holes on the bottom of its pot.
