Light
The Wandering Dude thrives in bright to medium light conditions. To maintain the most striking contrast of vivid colours give it bright diffused light.
Watering
Water well during the growing season and allow to dry-out between waterings.
If the plant sits in wet soil for long periods it will cause root rot. Reduce the amount of watering in winter.
Humidity
The Tradescantia zebrina does prefer increased levels of humidity but will tolerate normal conditions. For an added boost, mist regularly, or relocate to a steamier room such as the kitchen or bathroom.
Feed
Liquid fertiliser can be applied during the growing season, once a month or so should be sufficient
