Easy Care Guide:

1. Low Light Tolerant.
- Place the plant in bright, indirect sunlight. It can tolerate some direct morning sunlight but avoid harsh afternoon sun to prevent leaf burn.

2. Tolerates Home Climates.
- Maintain a temperature between 65-75°F (18-24°C). This plant thrives in moderate room temperatures.

3. Occasional Watering:
- Water the Tradescantia when the top inch of soil is dry. Allow excess water to drain from the pot to prevent root rot.

4. Average Soil:
- Use a well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix to ensure proper water drainage and aeration for the roots.

5. Moderate Humidity:
- This plant is adaptable to typical household humidity levels. If you live in a dry climate, occasional misting can create a slightly more humid environment.

6. Occasional Fertilizing:
- Feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength during the growing season (spring and summer) once a month.

7. Light Pruning:
- Regularly pinch or trim the stems to promote bushyness and encourage new growth. This will also help maintain a compact, attractive shape.

8. Ocassional Repotting:
- Re-pot your Tradescantia mundala 'Lisa'  every 1-2 years or when it outgrows its current container. Choose a slightly larger pot and refresh the soil.

9. Minimum Pest and Disease Control:
- Monitor the plant for signs of pests like spider mites or aphids. If detected, treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil.

10. Fun Easy Propagation:
- Tradescantia mundala 'Lisa' can be easily propagated through stem cuttings. Allow the cuttings to callus for a day or two before placing them in the soil.
