Tradescantia tricolor 'Pink Princess' (also known as Inch Plant or Tradescantia fluminensis tricolor) is a fast-growing, trailing houseplant prized for its bright green, cream, and magenta-striped foliage with purple undersides. It thrives in bright, indirect light and well-draining soil, making it an excellent, easy-care choice for hanging baskets.

Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Insufficient light will cause the plant to lose its vibrant pink variegation and revert to plain green, while direct sun can scorch the delicate leaves.

Watering: Water when the top 1 inch to 2 inches of soil feels dry to the touch. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot, but do not let the entire pot dry out completely.

Pruning & Propagation: Regularly pinch back leggy stems to encourage a bushier habit. Prune out any completely green or completely pink stems, as pure green stems grow faster and will take over the plant. Propagate easily by taking stem cuttings and placing them directly in water or moist soil.

Toxicity: Keep this plant out of reach of pets and small children, as the sap can cause contact dermatitis and mild gastrointestinal irritation if ingested
