She lives in rarely changed regularly topped up water. TBH, I only seem to know how to grow monster sized plants by ignoring the normal suggestions. Like plant/ pot size & watering times. I always WAY up size my plant's pots & water much more often with WAY less water. I like to keep the top of the soil looking moist but, fully _knowing_ that my plants aren't wet, wet. If you understand what I';m saying than you too most likely have huge happy plants that are _just_ really happy. If you know, you KNOW, ya know? 😂😂

I made the mistake/learning experience by taking a couple of stems of this plant from a friend's yard and planting them in a small bare spot on the side of my house, and within 2-3 years both sides of my house and nearly all of the backyard was covered by it! At first I was fascinated by the fact that I could take a pile of the trimmings and just toss them wherever I liked and it would just take off! What started as ignorant bliss quickly turned into an overwhelming nuisance. A very resilient plant that I still find traces of around my house after several years of digging up ,spraying, and regretting the day I brought those couple of stems home!

She placed it in front of the south facing patio door in a hanging basket - it grew so profusely that she had to cut the stems when they were laying on the floor. She did this every couple of weeks or so!! It was thick (even the stems growing to the floor). It was absolutely beautiful!!

Successfully grew my tradescantia zebrina from a tiny nothing cutting to a three thriving established pots that have flowered! The biggest thing was once I introduced grow lights; it went from zero to one hundred. I've got stems happily growing in water that have flowered too. I bottom water once the soil has dried out. They've all got huge leaves and strong stems. I also try to feed stems back into the pot to strengthen it. I've had no brown leaves or issues for months. Hope that helps anyone else!

In my experience this is a plant that loves in attention. I have a five year old one that I stick into a low light area in my bedroom, and basically ignore it over the winter months, only throwing a bit of water in it once in a while. It’s not too bad looking just literally hanging out. When it gets warmer I will cut it back repot it etc, then put it non my balcony with its other friends, and it will hopefully be okay for years to come. By the way his name is Tony…all my plants have names these days lol.

My neighbour gave me this plant last year and I had no idea what it was (I’m not very good with houseplants, but am successful somehow with orchids and have yet to kill off my spider plant). Fortunately, it handled my neglectful watering (now I know why) and seeing as it was spilling out of the tallish pot I have it in, I gave it a haircut a couple of days ago, mainly to see if I could propagate it. Now I can be confident that this wasn’t wrong! Thank you for the info regarding the crispy leaves, it did have a few and now I know it was probably due to top watering x

I have the "purple" one living in my yard. I just squirt it with the hose when I'm outside watering. Have never had a problem getting it to grow. The Nanouk one I killed many of them. When I bought my last one (a huge hanging basket) I told the seller I have killed so many of these. Her question to me was "are you watering it" ? My answer, well of course, she said stop it !!! I guess I was just giving it too much Love. I do think that Nanouk is the one of those plants that absolutely do not like chlorinated water. I try and water that one with rain water. The purple one I grow for give-a-way plants. Donation for a Nursery that goes to help mentally challenged people.

I have had several since 1981, I have taken cuttings and repotted ever since. They change colour depending on where I put them. I just cut off stems remove bottom leaves, stick it back in the pot and off they go. I have nearly lost them a few times, but I just snip off and stick back in. Good luck everyone🍀

This is true!!! I propagated mine and in 2 days it had roots growing!! 😳 It does get very leggy too. I just hate the overall look of mine but I'd feel guilty getting rid of it 😩

Son was on a hiking trip in Medellin, Columbia. Wandering*** grows all over the place. Base of lampposts, open fields, etc.

Now I get why it used to be called Wandering ____. I grew up calling it by that name, but now I see it labeled as Inch Plant, and I can see why it's called that too. Inch by inch, it takes over!

Yes here in the USA. If it touches the ground you’ll have to move to get rid of it.

Thanks for this; it helps explain why my T. Pink Panther self-destructed. It did leave me with 1,490 tiny cuttings (number may not be accurate); I managed to give away about 2/3 of the extras, but now I have two pots full. 😆😯

Thanks for sharing. That's exactly what I did this winter to save my plant, it grows so leggy and leaves were falling off, what an ugly sight. Now it's doing well.
