Ohio spiderwort

Ohio spiderwort prefers moist but well-drained soil, so this plant should ideally be watered on a weekly basis (every 7 days to be exact). During the summer, when the temperatures are hot and the days are long, it may be necessary to water even more frequently. When watering, it is important to avoid overwatering this plant as it can be prone to root rot. Make sure to check the soil's moisture regularly to ensure the plant is not being over-watered. When watering, make sure you give the soil a good soaking, but be careful not to water too much and make sure the pot drains properly. During the winter, when temperatures and days are cooler, it may not be necessary to water this plant as often.

Ohio spiderwort (Tradescantia ohiensis) can tolerate partial shade, but they need at least 4 hours of direct sunlight per day to thrive. The best time for direct sunlight for this plant species is between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. for several days out of a week during each growing season. It is important to provide Ohio spiderwort with appropriate amounts of sunlight to ensure they grow to their full health and beauty.

Ohio spiderwort should be pruned in late spring or early summer, just after flowering has finished. Pruning should remove any wilted or dead flower heads, as well as any weak or overcrowded stems. Cut the stems back to the basal rosette of foliage or to a leaf node, as desired. After pruning, apply a balanced fertilizer to encourage vigorous new growth and flowering.
