Fantasy Venice Care Made Easy
Water your Fantasy Venice when the top 2–3 cm (about 1 inch) of soil feels dry.
Use the finger test — if the soil feels dry at that depth, it’s time to water.
During the growing season (October to May), water every 7–10 days. In cooler months, reduce to around every 2 weeks.
Avoid overwatering, as it can cause root rot. Always use a pot with good drainage and let excess water drain fully.
Keep the soil slightly moist, but never soggy.
Fantasy Venice prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant pink, purple, and green foliage.
Ideal: Near an east- or west-facing window with filtered sunlight.
Tolerates: Moderate light but may lose color intensity in dim conditions.
Avoid: Direct afternoon sun, which can fade or scorch the delicate leaves.
Tip: Rotate the plant weekly to encourage even growth and balanced shape.
Feed your Fantasy Venice every 4–6 weeks during the growing season (October to May).
Do not fertilize in winter, as the plant's growth naturally slows down.
Tradescantia Nanouk is sensitive to over-fertilizing, which can lead to leggy growth and dull foliage.
Use a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer, and occasionally flush the soil to prevent salt buildup.
