Tradescantia Pistachio White is a striking variegated spiderwort prized for its creamy white and soft pistachio-green striped foliage. Compact and trailing in habit, it's equally at home in a hanging basket or spilling over a shelf edge — a refined statement plant for bright interiors.

Care Guide

  • Light: Bright, indirect light. Variegation is most vivid with 4–6 hours of filtered sun daily; avoid harsh direct afternoon sun which can scorch the leaves.
  • Water: Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Allow good drainage — does not tolerate soggy roots.
  • Humidity: Tolerates average household humidity; appreciates occasional misting or a pebble tray.
  • Temperature: 60–85°F (15–29°C). Protect from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F.
  • Soil: Well-draining potting mix; a perlite-amended mix works well.
  • Fertilizer: Balanced liquid fertilizer monthly during the growing season (spring–summer); skip in winter.
  • Pruning: Pinch back leggy stems to encourage bushy, full growth. Cuttings root easily in water.
  • Toxicity: Mildly toxic to cats and dogs — advise pet owners accordingly.
