Tradescantia Fluminensis 2”—A Trailing Treasure for Tiny Spaces

Meet the Tradescantia Fluminensis 2”, affectionately known as the “Inch Plant.” With its cascading trails of delicate, glossy green leaves, it’s a plant that effortlessly brings charm to any nook or cranny. This petite beauty is perfect for adding a touch of nature to desktops, windowsills, or even as a starter for your future trailing masterpiece.

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions—perfect for plant parents without a sun-soaked window.

• Water: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Allow the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings.

• Humidity: Loves a bit of humidity, so it’s a fan of bathrooms or kitchens. Otherwise, a misting now and then will keep it happy.

What It’s Telling You:

• Happy Signs: Vigorous growth with rich green leaves—watch it trail!

• Needs TLC: Yellowing or limp leaves may mean it’s thirsty, while crispy edges suggest it’s too dry or in direct sunlight.

Good News for Pet Parents:

This plant is not pet-friendly, so keep it out of reach from curious nibblers.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:

• The 2” size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot, not the height of the plant.

• Your Tradescantia Fluminensis will arrive in its nursery pot—any containers or ceramics shown are for styling inspiration only.

• At 3B’s Flowers, we photograph every plant in-house, but nature doesn’t do clones. Your plant may have unique variations, making it uniquely yours.

Symbolism with Style:

Symbolizing growth and resilience, the Tradescantia Fluminensis is a thoughtful gift for anyone navigating new beginnings—or for yourself as a daily reminder to keep thriving. Its playful nickname, “Inch Plant,” comes from how quickly and steadily it grows, inch by inch!
