Caring for purple heart flowers (Tradescantia pallida) is quite easy if you follow the following care steps. Here's a step-by-step guide to ensure your plants grow lush and healthy:

1. Lighting
Bright Light: Tradescantia pallida likes bright light.
2. Watering
Water Requirements: This plant likes moist soil but not too wet. Water the plants regularly, but make sure the water does not stagnate.
Watering Frequency: It is best to water it every time the soil surface starts to dry out.
3. Planting Media
Good Soil: Use a soil mix that has good drainage. A good potting soil mix with perlite or sand will help prevent water stagnation.
4. Humidity
Air Humidity: Tradescantia pallida is not particularly demanding of high humidity, but maintaining humidity around the plant can help with optimal growth.
5. Pruning
Routine Pruning: Cut off stems that are too long or dead to encourage new growth and maintain the shape of the plant.
Propagation: You can propagate this plant by cutting the stem and planting it in soil or water until it takes root.
6. Repotting
Repotting: Repotting can be done every 1-2 years or when the plant looks too big for its pot. Transfer to a slightly larger pot with fresh soil.

With proper care, your purple Adam Eve flowers will grow abundantly and add beauty to your home.
