Soil:

A standard well-draining houseplant soil mixed with coarse sand, orchid bark, or perlite will work well. It is important to have good drainage to avoid root rot.

The Tradescantia is mildly toxic if ingested and not suitable for spaces with pets and children. Also, it’s sap can be irritating to the skin.
