Hello! I got this silver inch plant from my mother in law as a gift. The first photo is from September and this is her now! I’ve never had this plant before and I’m shocked at how tall it’s grown. Truthfully, I’m not entirely sure what to do at this point, because it worries me a bit that she’s grown and now climbing the wall. Anybody have any tips for this beautiful plant? I definitely want to give her the best life 🥰

    You can buy climbing guides, so she goes where you want. Really pretty and healthy!

    If you don't want it climbing on the wall I would give it something to climb on, OR it's so healthy it would do well getting a trim. Tradescantia propagates super duper well in my experience so you could use those cuttings to make more or make your current one even bushier. Beautiful plant good luck ❤️

      Agreed!! And plants make for a great gift, too! Especially when you prop and grow them! Makes it extra special! 🥰
