If I plant these 2 inch plants together will it work or not? I've been propergating the one on the left and today I got the one on the right but didn't realise how different they look.

    They have the same care, so yes

      True, I have put them together and I tried to make it look natural like they are almost, almost the same plant.

      True, they are in the same family. The Zebrina will probably grow faster than the nanouk too. I thought you were also going to put the polka dot plant in there too

      May I ask which one is which? 😅 I thought they were the same plant but just different variations? No, the polka dot was just in the same jar propagating.

      They are both tradescantia. The one with the silver is named tradescantia Zebrina. The other one (on the right) is called tradescantia nanouk. Sometimes it’s nicknamed bubblegum

    Silver inch plants are great and super resilient. There should be no problem if you plant it with the other one. They’re very fast growers, so I would repot before anything. Make sure you’re turning it as well because they will crawl towards the light.

      Ok, thank you. Once the silver inch is bigger I'm going to propergate it then put it all in its own pot. Also it's on a shelf so I want it to grow towards the light and dangle down
