Introducing the Nanouk pink wandering Jew plant, known as Tradescantia Nanouk, which is a very popular hanging plant. It is also known as the wandering jew Nanouk, Tradescantia albiflora nanouk, spiderwort Nanouk, and Fantasy Venice plant.

The wandering jew is a name for several plants in the Tradescantia genus, considered invasive in some regions but suitable for vining indoor plant collections due to their similar growing characteristics. 


The lush leaves of Nanouk Tradescantia are adorned with beautiful pink, white, purple, and green stripes that create an eye-catching pattern, it looks stunning standing upright, just wait until you see it trailing gracefully like ivy.

Hailing from South Africa, this low-maintenance Tradescantia Nanouk wandering jew can grow up to 6 inches tall and 24 inches long.

The tradescantia Nanouk hanging plant grows quickly and vigorously.

Thanks to its patented development by Dutch cultivators in 2012, who wanted to create a more robust Tradescantia with showier blooms.  

The Tradescantia Nanouk flowers bloom during the growing season with small white and yellow flowers that bloom from the pink buds. These delicate flowers add a beautiful contrast to the vibrant pink and green leaves of the plant. The blooms attract pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, to the garden.  

Propagation of the Tradescantia Nanouk can be done through stem cuttings. Simply cut a healthy stem with at least one node and place it in water or soil to root. Remember to propagate Tradescantia nanouk; always keep the cuttings in a warm, bright location with indirect sunlight to encourage growth. Trim or pinch back leggy or overgrown stems to encourage bushier growth and maintain the plant's shape.

Watering Needs 

Often, people worry they aren't giving their plants enough water when in reality they are over-watering them. This is especially the case with Tradescantia Nanouk as they don't do well in moist soil which can result in root rot and yellowing or browning of the leaves 

In the spring and summer, during the growing season, it is important to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, while in the dormant season, watering should be reduced to prevent root rot. 

Besides hydrating correctly, it's also crucial to ensure that the potting soil drains quickly to avoid damaging the perennial plant roots. As drought-tolerant plants, the wandering Jew can thrive with less frequent watering and if you forget to water them for a month or more, they will probably survive just fine. 

Remember, it's best to wait until the top two inches of soil are completely dry before watering. Watch out for signs of dehydration such as a pale discoloration and shriveled stem indicating that the Nanouk plant is consuming its interior water supply.

Light Requirements 

When growing indoors, this rare Nanouk pink wandering jew plant loves bright, indirect light. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but its colors might not be as vibrant. So, placing it near a window with filtered light would be perfect.

When growing outdoors, your Tradescantia Nanouk thrives in a bright location that receives at least 4-6 hours of bright, indirect light. So, finding a spot with some sun in the morning or afternoon would be great. Just make sure it's not exposed to direct sunlight for long periods, as that can scorch its leaves. It's also important to protect it from harsh winds and extreme temperatures.

If your Nanouk Tradescantia plant is getting too much light, the leaves may turn brown or yellow.  If they don't receive enough light, their stems may grow leggy and become paler or lose their variegation; so, make your Nanouk plant happy and give it plenty of light.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Tradescantia Nanouk likes very airy, porous, nutrient-rich dense soil with a pH of 5.6- 6.5. This Nanouk plant requires well-draining potting mix that dries completely between waterings. Your soil must have a sandy texture and a low water-holding capacity, just like desert soil.  Soggy wet soil can damage your plant and contribute to bacterial and fungal rot. In addition, because of a lack of oxygen, soggy soil substitutes air pockets with water, resulting in an anaerobic environment that can kill your Nanouk Tradescantia. 

As an alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil. Ideally, you want to use our specialized potting mix that contains organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your wandering Jew to thrive. 

Natural fertilizers with an equal mixture of NPK (5-10-5) also last longer and keep your soil alive by adding other beneficial compounds and microbes that encourage Nanouk plant health and nutrient absorption. So, skip those harsh chemicals and give your Tradescantia some love with some awesome natural fertilizer! 

Hardiness Zones & More 

When growing indoors, the Tradescantia Nanouk is generally comfortable in typical indoor temperatures between 60-75°F. Just make sure to keep it away from drafts or extreme temperature fluctuations.

If you are growing your Tradescantia Nanouk outdoors, it is well-suited in USDA hardiness zones 9-12. These zones have milder climates with minimum temperatures ranging from 20-40°F. If you live in a colder region, you can still enjoy this plant outdoors during the warmer months, but it's best to bring it inside when the temperature drops.

Additionally, the Tradescantia Nanouk wandering jew appreciates moderate to high humidity levels. Indoor environments can often be dry, especially during winter when the heating is on. To provide some extra humidity, you can place a tray of water near the plant or use a humidifier. Outdoors, the plant can handle average humidity levels without any issues.

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Tradescantia Nanouk is a stunning houseplant with vibrant, colorful leaves that add a pop of beauty to any indoor space. It's a relatively easy plant to care for, making it perfect for both beginner and experienced plant enthusiasts. Just remember to place it in bright, indirect light indoors and provide it with slightly moist soil. Outdoors, it thrives in partial shade and mild temperatures. Keep an eye on its watering needs and provide some extra humidity if necessary. With a little love and attention, Tradescantia Nanouk will reward you with its gorgeous foliage. Enjoy your plant journey!

Be sure to add 'Tradescantia albiflora Nanouk' to your home or garden and enjoy its low maintenance care, while admiring its impressive display year after year.

Disappointed.
Color: Blue, Size: Large, Color: Blue, Size: Large
This sweater is so comfortable and very soft. It fits well in a flattering, oversized way. But after one wash it is pilled everywhere which makes it look old and shabby. It’s at a price point where I feel compelled to return it.

Perfect for casual wear and dressy style
Color: Dark Green, Size: Small
This sweater is soooo soft and the color is so rich. The fit of it is perfect, not too tight and not too baggy, just right and I used the size guide to pick my size. Just for reference, I am 5'3" and 130lbs, 38C bust. It's well made and washes great. I chose to hang dry mine as I typically don't put any of my sweaters in the dryer to dry, just to fluff them. I have this one in two colors, the green and the tan/beige and I would say they are both a true representative of the color shown.

Love the long sleeves!!!
Color: White, Size: Small
Love it! I'm 5' 11" tall and I purchased this according to reviews. Several people commented on the length of the sleeves. I have a hard time finding sleeves long enough if it's not " tall" sized. It was perfect for me. If this washes nice I'm going to consider purchasing more in other colors. I ordered the white and just love the long ribbed cuffs with the line of buttons. Very soft.

Great sweater for winters in the Midwest
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Love this sweater! I went back and got another color! The fit is true to size and very comfy. The button detail on the sleeves just adds a little pizazz. The weight of the sweater is perfect for winters in the Midwest.
