Description

The listing, Wandering Jew starts has ended.

Wandering Jew, also called inch plant, wandering Jew (Tradescantia zebrina) is a creeping evergreen plant grown for its colorful, striped leaves, which come in shades of purple, green and white. It grows outdoors in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 8 through 11 or you can grow it as a houseplant. Established wandering Jew plants require minimal care and will thrive despite neglect. Wandering Jew plants often develop spindly, unattractive growth as they age. Even young plants may have a lanky appearance that is improved with light pruning. Wandering Jew plants benefit from pinching back to encourage branching. Prune back the entire plant by one-quarter once the stems reach 6 to 8 inches long. The spent flowers (small blue) should also be removed to redirect the plant's energy away from seed production.
In Florida I use this plant outdoors as a ground cover, and when I was up north, I had a huge one in a basket indoors. Very hardy. You can not over water.

I will send 3 rooted 6" or longer plants ready for you to plant. They will be shipped with roots wrapped with damp paper towels, and packaged to help prevent damage in shipment.
For each 1000 credits bid over 600 I will include another rooted plant as above.
I ship around the 3rd of the month, or third Wednesday of the month as we are on fixed income.
