Hello plant friends. Does anyone know why my tradescantia zebrina is completely purple/pink? Too much light? Help! Also, I just bought an alocasia Polly. Planta says itās hard to take of. Anyone have any tips for care? Thank you

Do you fertilize?
0 LikesI guess Iāll try fertilizing it and maybe move it in a less sunny location to see if I can get it green again. Thanks everyone for your comments āŗļø
0 LikesYea, Iād say more indirect sunlight will help get it green again. I noticed when I would leave mine in direct sunlight, it would turn purple and almost translucent. If my front porch didnāt get full sun all day, Iād have started an outdoor pot of them already. I lost a lot of leaves from repotting them out of the hanging basket but they come back like a dad who hadnāt seen their kid in years but heard they won the lottery so Iām not too worried haha!
