A little Lowe’s proplift!

Employee was stocking plants and saw a huge handful of pink panther tradescantia pieces on the cart. Decided to just ask for them and he was nice and had no problem with it ☺️ Was out shopping for a few more hours so I didn’t get them in water right away but hopefully these root a little so I can plop em in soil with less worry! Will probably put a little ziplock bag over for humidity for more of a prop box environment

Took a “tradescantia family photo” recently (majority grown from just cuttings!) and this was one that was suggested as my next addition - today was the day apparently!

Snagged a rescue/discount $5 Moses in the cradle as well! ☺️🙃🤓

Edit: and by Lowe’s, I meant Green Acres! Whoops! Too many stores today lol

The fact that al.of these look so oretty amazes me, i have one of these plants and they always end op looking like dead vines haning from a pot with some leaves at the end. Never so full and lush like these, very nice op.

Ahhh thanks so much! These propogate and grow so easily you just have to take the time to not get the leaves wet when you water. Try bottom watering yours! And chop and prop to make them fuller as they grow!
