Bolivian Turtlevine

Description:
Bolivian Turtlevine, also known as Callisia repens or Turtle Vine, is a fast-growing trailing plant with small, succulent-like leaves that range in shades of green, purple, and pink. Its cascading growth habit makes it a perfect choice for hanging baskets, terrariums, or as ground cover in warm climates. This low-maintenance plant is easy to care for and thrives with minimal attention, making it an excellent option for both beginners and experienced plant enthusiasts.

Watering:
Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly, ensuring any excess water drains out to prevent root rot. It is drought-tolerant but prefers consistent moisture. Reduce watering in cooler months when growth slows.

Fertilizer:
Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can cause leggy growth. Reduce feeding in fall and winter when the plant’s growth naturally slows down.

Lighting:
Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sunlight. Too much shade may cause the plant to become leggy and lose its vibrant colors. If grown indoors, placing it near a bright window or under a grow light will help maintain its compact and colorful foliage.

Temperature:
Thrives in temperatures between 60-80°F (16-27°C). Protect from frost and sudden temperature drops, as it is sensitive to cold. If grown outdoors, bring it inside when temperatures drop below 50°F (10°C).

Humidity:
Prefers moderate to high humidity. If the air is too dry, mist occasionally or place the plant near a humidity tray. While it can tolerate lower humidity levels, higher humidity will encourage lush, healthy growth.
