Care & tips for the Bambino Tradescantia Sweetness - 5cm
The Bambino Tradescantia Sweetness is a miniature houseplant with variegated, slightly glossy leaves in shades of green, pink and cream. It grows quickly and trails beautifully over the edge of a pot or bowl. Keep the temperature steady and avoid draughts and dry air. This houseplant isn't winter-hardy and belongs indoors.
How much water does the Bambino Tradescantia Sweetness - 5cm need?
The soil of the Tradescantia Sweetness can stay slightly moist. Let the top layer dry out a little between waterings. Water regularly in small amounts and don't let the plant sit in a layer of water.
How much light does the Bambino Tradescantia Sweetness - 5cm need?
Give this colourful plant a bright spot with plenty of indirect light. Harsh sun can fade the variegation or scorch the leaves, while too little light turns the plant green and dull. An east- or west-facing window is ideal.
Is the Bambino Tradescantia Sweetness - 5cm toxic?
The Tradescantia is mildly toxic if eaten, so keep pets and small children in mind.
