    Features

    'Feeling Flirty' spiderwort is an easy plant to grow. It is a wonderfully low-maintenance houseplant, but it also makes a great accent plant when grown outdoors. This unique version has pinkish-purple and green striped foliage. It's as if someone used a paint brush to add green stripes to the pink foliage. This is a trailing plant, perfect to use in a hanging basket or even trailing from a regular planter.

    Maintenance Notes: 
    • For optimal performance, keep at 60-85°F (15-29°C).
    • This is an easy-to-grow houseplant, but can also be grown outside in the warm season. Indoors, it will thrive in bright light. Outdoors, it will do well in a part sun situation. 
    • It will grow best in a humid environment.
    • Water as needed, when the top inch or two of soil is dry to the touch. When you do water, apply enough water to soak all of the soil.
    • During the growing season, fertilize this plant at half strength once per month. 
    • Protect furniture when watering.
    • Please note that if you don't provide enough light, this plant will become more spindly and sparse, and will not be as full.
