In this video I show you my leggy Tradescantia Zebrina and cut it into several pieces. This way you can easily propagate Tradescantia Zebrina with cuttings either in water or directly in soil.
I show you how you can have many Wandering Jew plant cuttings. You can plant the cuttings all together to have a bushy plant and of course, you can give the extra cuttings to your friends to help them grow their own Tradescantia Zebrina.

@AnnasViolets 4 жыл бұрын

Hey Jissa, there may be various reasons - very hot and dry air, direct scorching sun, rotten roots, spider mites. Depends on how the leaves look like and in what conditions it grows. Could you pls tell me more about the conditions? Have you repotting it recently? In any case (if there are no insects/diseases), I would recommend putting some cuttings in the water. In case your plant dies, you will still have some cuttings to grow a new plant.

Can you tell me your Suggestions or tips to help successfully transfer them

@AnnasViolets 4 жыл бұрын

When the roots are 2-3 cm long, it's already enough to plant them. Honestly, they grow really easy. I don't think there will be a problem. Just water them thoroughly when you plant them, and keep the soil slightly moist. Put the pot in a bright place, but not under the sun. You will see new growth already in a week :)

What area are you from Anna,I am in Southern Ontario . I always wonder if we are going along with advice and we or I don't take into consideration that I'm not being aware of my environment is not the same as the groups or you tube advisers... Your advise was great by the way, I realize that my plant is beyond actually calling it a plant even though it is still growing it's in very bad shape that I will did to cut an propagate the whole plant I've propagated other leaves before to make a plant for my daughter and did it in water and it was really quick in rooting but since I will have so many ends is it better that I just stick them back into the earth or water propagating in several containers be better since it appears that it grows faster in water..

@AnnasViolets 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Granny Lion, that's a very good point. The conditions and climates are always different, even in the same city, even in the different rooms of the same apartment. I always try to say water when needed, rather than water once every 2, 3 days, or once a week. It depends on so many things - type of soil, air humidity, size and type of the pot (clay, plastic), root system, condition of the plant, etc. There is no schedule or one way of doing things right. I share my experience, but everyone shall feel for themselves and understand their plants', which comes with the time. As for Tradescantias, I believe they give roots faster in water, even though they are fast growers in any case. :) 🌸

Hi Anna! I have both wandering jews, and dwarf wandering jews. The plant was neglected for some time, and there are many long vines, with good growth on the ends after tending to the dead leaves. Would they be okay if I followed your methods on this video, and put them into moist soil opposed to propagating? There are so many cuttings to be made, that it would be hard to place them all in jars, especially the dwarves! They're all healthy, and any cuttings I've made have thrived whenever propagated in the past. Thank you for any feedback! Very helpful video!

Try using either rain water or bottled spring water with no additives. I was using tap water and it is very chlorinated here so it was chemically burning the plant, which is a reason why your leaves can get brown and crispy and just die, despite the rest of the plant being okay. Since I started using spring water, my plants are doing much better and don't get that effect.

I have, I mean ‘had’, a Tradescantia 60 YEARS old! Until this year. No idea of name, it was pale lilac and pale green. I took cuttings exactly as on this video, every second spring and had a new trailing plant grow happily. But over this last year, the leaves started dying off far too much. Then, it started sprouting as it should all along the long length of nodes in its trailing stems. BUT, the new leaves which started growing as usual, did not have the fleshy stems as they always used to. They were very ‘woody’ like a tree! and only dark green, no lovely pinky stripes. I let the stems grew only 2 inches hoping they’d ‘correct’ themselves, but they didn’t. And so sadly I had to throw away my grand 60 year old Tradescantia. And bought a new one. Well, it was two small but very well rooted cuttings - Nanouk I think, as it’s bright strong pink with stripe. Fine, I planted them in one pot so they’d make a bushy plant, as in the photo from where I’d bought it. BUT, trouble.....those 2 stems are growing straight up like a tree and both are now 15cms tall! Please, HOW DO I GET A BUSHY PLANT? When and how will it ‘trail’ as my old ones always did? I want a trailing plant! Not two sticks straight up!! Help!!

@AnnasViolets 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Margaret, I'm so sorry to hear about your 60 years old plant. If your new one is Nanouk, that variety is not trailing. It's growing straight and has very thick stems. I have 2 videos about Nanouk. One is here and you can see that it's not trailing: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lZqXbKqcu8_dj4U.html It's still a great plant, maybe you can propagate it (have a special video about propagation of Nanouk too) to have a bushier plant. But if you want trailing, maybe choose T. Zebrina. 🌸

The right way is to say the biological names of plants. Totally agree. I myself do not like other names, given to plants by people (snake plant, elephant ear, money tree, bear paws, etc.), as it's hard to identify which specific plant is meant. I am very far away from being racist.
