Tradescantia Callisia 'Pink Panther'

Pink Panther Tradescantia 🌸🌿 is loved for its tiny trailing leaves washed in pink, green, and cream, with a softer pastel look than many other trailing plants. It does best in bright indirect light indoors, where the color stays strongest and the vines can spill nicely from shelves, small pots, or hanging planters. This plant is generally easygoing, but it looks best with steady light and moderate watering instead of long dry stretches. Pro tip: if the pink starts fading or the growth gets thin, move it closer to brighter light before changing anything else ✨.
