Common Names: Wandering Dude, Wandering Jew, Inch Plant, Silver Inch Plant, Spiderwort

Scientific Name: Tradescantia zebrina

-Care Recommendations By The Dude-

Best for These Animals: Small to moderate-sized reptiles and amphibians and  species that benefit from dense trailing foliage for cover and climbing.

Bio Dude Substrates: TerraFirma, TerraFauna, TerraFlora

Soil Depth: Shallow to moderate

Lighting: Low to bright indirect light (best coloration develops under bright, indirect lighting)

Humidity & Misting: 40%-90%, moderate to high humidity preferred; occasional misting encourages lush growth.

Mature Plant Size & Root System: This Tradescantia is a fast-growing, trailing vine that readily roots along stems as it spreads. It can reach several feet in length, forming dense mats of foliage. Roots are shallow but vigorous, easily establishing in substrate, along hardscape, or in pockets of soil tucked into wood and background features. Regular trimming encourages fuller growth.

Temperature Tolerance & Placement in the Terrarium: 55 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit, though optimally between 65 and 80 degrees. Avoid placing directly under heat lamps. Best used as a trailing or cascading plant along ledges, climbing wood, or foreground to midground placement where it can spread naturally.

Edible & Side Effects if Ingested: Generally considered non-toxic to reptiles and amphibians. Sap may cause mild skin irritation in sensitive animals or handlers. Primarily used as an ornamental plant.

Pot Size & Packaging: A single 3" potted Tradescantia plant is shipped in the pot, wrapped in paper.
