Tradescantia Nanouk
£6.00
Pink, green and cream leaves that trail and tumble: Tradescantia Nanouk is a colourful indoor plant for a sunny windowsill when you want something cheerful and easy.
Pinch the tips to keep it bushy, or let the stems trail over the edge of a shelf. Bright light keeps the pink; too little and it fades toward green.
An easy houseplant for real homes
- Where it lives. Happiest on a sunny windowsill or trailing from a shelf.
- Light. Bright, indirect light keeps the pink strong.
- Water. When the top of the compost feels dry. Tip away any water left in the saucer.
- Around the family. Best placed where nibbling pets and small children can’t reach the leaves.
Your questions answered
Is this a good houseplant for beginners?
Yes. It’s one of the more forgiving indoor plants we stock, and a gentle place to start if you’re new to growing in a flat.
What size should I choose?
Smaller pots suit windowsills, desks and shelves. Larger sizes make more of a statement on the floor or beside furniture. Sizes available: 5.5cm pot.
Do I need a grow light?
Not usually, if you can offer the light described above. In a very dark flat, a simple white plant light on a shelf can help through midwinter.
