Tradescantia Kitten Ears
Tradescantia Kitten Ears is a soft, trailing houseplant known for its fuzzy green leaves and velvety texture. Its gentle, full growth habit makes it a great choice for hanging baskets, shelves, plant stands, and bright indoor spaces.
The proper name is commonly listed as Tradescantia ‘Kitten Ears’. Naming may vary by grower, and it may be sold as a fuzzy Tradescantia variety.
Care
Tradescantia Kitten Ears does best in bright, indirect light. Brighter filtered light helps support fuller growth and stronger color. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
Water thoroughly when the top inch or two of soil feels dry and allow water to drain. Tradescantia prefer lightly moist soil, but they do not like sitting in wet soil, so avoid watering too frequently.
Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot with drainage. A standard houseplant mix with added perlite, orchid bark, or coco coir works well.
Tradescantia Kitten Ears prefers warm temperatures and average to moderate humidity. Because the leaves are fuzzy, avoid letting water sit on the foliage for long periods. Good airflow helps keep the plant healthy.
Trim the vines as needed to keep the plant full and encourage branching. Cuttings root easily in water or soil, making this plant simple to propagate.
Pet Safety
Tradescantia plants are generally considered toxic to pets if ingested and may cause skin irritation for some pets or people. Keep them away from cats, dogs, and small children.
