Looks like. Wandering Jew aka Tradescantia zebrina

### Plantshley comentó el 2024-06-27

Ahh these propagate so quickly, like overnight! This is indeed a tradescantia zebrina!

#### Plantshley respondió el 2024-06-27

This is a propagation from a piece I found at Lowe’s! Potted it after it lived in water for a few months and it’s thriving. I have 4 more in water that are happy too! It’s a beautiful plant.

The roots are tiny and delicate, but they come out quick.

You can get them to grow easily, keep them moist!

Another name for them is a silver inch plant

### Sage comentó el 2024-06-27

Hi there! Anyone know if I can prop this plant into soil?

#### Urban Jungle 🦩 respondió el 2024-06-27

Yes in my opinion it’s the easiest way with this one!

### Jesica comentó el 2024-06-27

Mine love part sun, good draining soil, water when 25-50% dry. I trim browning and if top looks bare, I’ll cut a few nodes and plop them right back into the soil and bam! She keeps growing!
