📝 Description
Morphological Characteristics
Tradescantia cerinthoides ‘Pink Furry’ is a charming trailing plant known for its fuzzy, soft-textured leaves with a vivid mix of green, pink, and creamy white variegation. The leaf surface is covered in fine hairs, giving it a velvety appearance and tactile appeal.
The stems are semi-succulent and tend to sprawl or cascade, making it ideal for hanging baskets or as a trailing accent in mixed planters. Leaves are oval to lance-shaped, with variegation that becomes more intense under bright light. In optimal conditions, it may produce small three-petaled pink to lavender flowers, although the foliage remains the main decorative feature.
Growth Habits
It is a fast-growing, low-maintenance trailing species. Under ideal indoor conditions, it can quickly fill a pot or spill gracefully over edges. Regular trimming encourages bushier growth and prevents legginess.
Maintenance Points
• Lighting: Prefers bright, indirect light. Direct sun enhances pink variegation but may scorch if too intense.
• Watering: Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Do not allow to sit in soggy soil—root rot is a risk.
• Soil: Use a well-draining general-purpose potting mix. A bit of perlite or coarse sand helps with aeration.
• Temperature: Performs best at 18–26°C (65–79°F). Avoid cold drafts and temperatures below 10°C (50°F).
• Humidity: Appreciates moderate to high humidity. Dry air may cause browning leaf edges.
• Fertilization: Feed bi-weekly in growing season (spring and summer) with diluted liquid fertilizer.
• Pruning: Trim regularly to maintain compact growth and enhance color intensity.
Display & Use
Excellent for indoor hanging baskets, shelf trailing accents, or decorative table pots. The pink and green coloration contrasts beautifully with dark planters or modern ceramic designs. Works well in terracotta pots for a natural texture balance.
