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.

Solid Kids Sandals, Overpriced Like Most Kids Shoes 🌞
Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Brown, Size: 11 Little Kid, Color: Brown
My son hasn’t worn these yet since it’s December in Indiana and sandals + snow obviously don’t mix. 😂 So this review is based on first impressions rather than long term wear. That said, these seem wider than a lot of typical kids’ sandals, which I REALLY appreciate since we tend to have wider feet in our family. #hobbitfeet The quality feels pretty decent overall. They’re described as lightweight, and while they’re not insanely lightweight, they do have enough weight to feel semi-sturdy and not flimsy or cheap. I like the style and color, and I think they’ll work well for my son once warmer weather hits. My main complaint is the price. At just under $24 at the time of this review, it feels a little high for kids’ sandals and for what these are. I really feel like $20 MAX would make more sense. Kids shoes are almost always priced like adult shoes, even though they clearly use less material, and that’s hard for me to understand and wrap my mind around. Overall, these seem solid for daily wear, I just wish the price was a bit more reasonable and affordable.

Great basic and timeless design
Size: 12 Little Kid, Color: Brown
These sandals are a great find! They’re super easy to get on and off thanks to the Velcro straps, which is a huge win for little ones learning to be more independent. The fit is adjustable and secure, so they stay in place well during all kinds of play. The cork-style footbed is comfortable and gives good support, and the overall design feels sturdy enough to handle everyday wear. They’re lightweight but still durable, and have held up really well so far. They also have a classic, versatile look that goes with just about everything, perfect for summer outfits. Overall, a reliable, comfortable sandal that’s great for active kids. Would definitely buy again!

Great option for boys or girls
Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Black, Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Black
This is really more of a unisex option for a sandal. I have sandals that look like this, and both of my children have worn this style. I ordered these for my daughter, with the plan to pass them down to my son if they're not too worn when she outgrows them. The style is very minimalistic, so it goes with lots of outfits. All the straps are easily adjustable, so you can get a good fit. I would say the length is true to size, but the width is maybe a bit wide. Nevertheless, the adjustable straps really help them fit well. They feel really sturdy and I appreciate that the sole has cushion to it. My daughter has worn these every day since I got them out of the closet and they're holding up well.
