Fertilize Tradescantia
During the spring let’s regularly use a fertilizer rich with nitrogen and potassium to favour the development of the new vegetation; fertilization is done by adding fertilizer to the irrigating water, every 15-20 days.

Cultivation Tradescantia
These plants are perennial herbs. This plant in the summer assumes a purple colouring; it is small in size and can reach 60 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. The Tradescantia has a panel-like development, therefore it tends to widen very much.

Water Tradescantia
It is advisable to water the plants avoiding to leave water in the saucer, because stagnant water often develops fungal diseases. Water regularly, every 1-2 weeks , wetting the soil deeply with about 2-3 glasses of water ,but waiting for the substratum to dry completely between one watering and another; avoid leaving stagnant water.

Pests Tradescantia
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Mold Tradescantia
Cultivate in a good soil of an average mix, which slightly withholds humidity.
