you're doing it... easy care, as long as it doesn't freeze... just water in summer, and hope it doesn't completely die in winter (mine die back to almost nothing once the temps go below freezing). Can survive on almost no water, but needs to be established first. no water ever will cause it to die. If it's really warm out, lots of water is appreciated. Well draing soil is a must, as it rots in pure clay soils.
This one grows fabulously in water from cuttings. It grows inside and outside in Phoenix AZ. The name Wandering Jew is actually shortened from Wandering Jewel. You can also plant cuttings directly into soil. I usually use a watersoluable B1 solution for the first 3 - 4 waterings; B1 is supposed to encourage root growth and I've done well with it. In Phoenix, it grows in the shade or the sun. This is a groovy plant!
Good Luck,
Crystal
