🌱 How to Propagate Your Cuttings

1. Prepare the cuttings: Check that the stems are firm and healthy. Remove any leaves that would sit below the waterline or be buried in the growing medium.

2. Choose your rooting method: Place the lower stem nodes in clean water, or insert them into a lightly moist, well-draining propagation mix.

3. Provide suitable light: Choose a bright location with indirect light. Avoid intense direct sunlight while the cuttings are establishing roots.

4. Maintain moisture: For water propagation, refresh the water regularly. For soil propagation, keep the mix lightly moist but never waterlogged.

5. Pot after rooting: Once a healthy root system develops, transfer the cuttings to a suitable potting mix if they were started in water.

Rooting speed and success vary with stem condition, temperature, light, and care. New growth may take time, so give the cuttings a suitable environment while they establish.

☀️ Ongoing Plant Care

• Light: Bright, indirect light helps maintain attractive foliage coloration. Gentle morning sun may be suitable after acclimation.

• Water: Water a rooted plant when the upper layer of its potting mix begins to dry.

• Soil: Use a loose, well-draining houseplant potting mix.

• Temperature: Protect the plant from frost and prolonged cold.

• Growth habit: As the plant grows, its stems can trail over the edges of pots or be trimmed to encourage fuller growth.

📦 Shipping and Handling

Your order contains 9 unrooted live stem cuttings. No roots, soil, or nursery pots are included unless explicitly stated in the listing options.

🔔 Important Information

• This is a propagation product, not a mature potted houseplant.

• Rooting is not guaranteed and depends on care and growing conditions.

• Photos of mature plants show the potential appearance after successful propagation; the shipped cuttings may look different.

• Keep the plant away from pets that may chew on it, as Tradescantia can cause irritation in some animals.

• Check local rules before transporting live plant material across borders.
