This plant's trailing foliage is adorably compact with its tiny leaves and narrow stems. In its natural habitat, it grows across the floor and, while in your home it won't root in your carpet, it will look great hanging or trailing or adding a splash of colour inside a terrarium. This Callisia's glossy green leaves have purple undersides, a colour whose vibrancy is especially clear in the right amount of light. With a bright location out of direct sun, above-average humidity and moist soil, this plant will be happy to keep growing and trailing at your pleasure. It is also easy to propagate from cuttings, so you can snip it back and propagate to keep it bushy and compact.

Scientific Name
Callisia repens (beautiful creeping plant)

Synonyms
Hapalanthus repens, Tradescantia callisia, Tradescantia repens 

This species name was first published in 1762 and is still accepted today.

Common Names
Turtle Vine, Creeping Inch Plant, Inch Plant, Waterweek, Creeping Basket Plant, Chain Plant

Origin
Native to Central and South America, particularly in tropical regions (Northeastern & Northwestern Argentina, Aruba, Belize, Bolivia, Northeastern Brazil, Cayman Is., Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, French Guiana, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Leeward Is., Mexico, Netherlands Antilles, Nicaragua, Panamá, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Texas (US), Trinidad-Tobago, Venezuela, Venezuelan Antilles, Windward Is.)

Light
Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. In lower light, growth may slow, and colours may become less vibrant. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Water
Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. In winter, reduce watering as the plant’s growth naturally slows.

Humidity
Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels. Because of this, it does well in terrarium environments, and may benefit from the introduction of a humidity tray if in a drier spot.

Soil
This is a succulent Callisia, so use a well-draining mix with components like sand and grit to keep it happy. A mix designed for cacti and succulents will work well here. Repot every year or two as the plant grows.

Food
Feed once a month during the growing season (spring to early autumn) with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser. Reduce feeding in winter.

Temperature
Ideal temperatures are between 18-24°C. Avoid temperatures below 10°C and protect from cold draughts.

Pet-safe?
Yes, it's non-toxic to pets, making it a safe option for households with animals.

Sprouts Top Tips
If the leaves start to lose their colour, this can indicate the plant needs more light. However, yellowing leaves may signal overwatering, so adjust watering as needed. For a fuller growth habit, pinch back the tips of the stems to encourage branching.

Extras
This plant’s compact and dense growth makes it an ideal choice for terrariums, where it can thrive with the consistent moisture and higher humidity levels.

Amazon sell a fine selection of replacement fiberized rubber fiber plugs & cement. Read the reviews.
Color: Vivid Orange
This is the only kit you will ever need at roadside to plug a tire & be on your way. This kit has it all. I'm a retired long haul trucker. This is my preferred plug kit. I have stored one of these in all of my trucks & my wife's SUV. You could spend so much more for other plug kits. But this one works. The price reflects the quality of both the tools & all the other essentials you will ever need. I recommend you buy this one. The money you save can be used elsewhere. Note: Amazon sell a fine selection of replacement fiberized rubber plugs & rubber cement. This is where you don't want to skimp on cheap-O plugs elsewhere. These two items are the most important items in the entire system. Be prepared! Always read the reviews & know the sellers reputation before you purchase things. ///////////////

ALMOST perfect.
Color: Vivid Orange
Item is as advertised. Durable, and the tools are useful for more than just regular plugs. It comes with the snips which was great as well as actual valve stem replacements which I thought were pretty nice. Only complaint are the plug strips themselves. If the hole is from a bolt or something larger than the average screw, it may take two of them to completely stop the leak. Hope this helped.

Sturdy, high-quality components
Color: Vivid Orange1, Size: 16pcs
Well-made reamer and plug inserter, as well as the 10 plugs, and the accessories. Even the pouch is high quality. Included instructions are very clear -- just be sure not to insert the plug with too much force, or you'll put the entire plug thru the hole. It's so much easier for a simple in-situ scooter tire puncture repair, where removing the tire can be much more time-consuming than removing a car tire. Including the high-quality little water/soap solution mister is a thoughtful feature. I highly recommend.
