Halloween ‘Boo!’ Glass Mug Arrangement – Tri-Color Moses-in-the-Cradle & Tradescantia zebrina

Spooky Season Meets Rare Plant Obsession

This is the arrangement for the plant lover who also decorates for Halloween — two spectacular Tradescantia family plants planted together in a clear glass Halloween mug emblazoned with “Boo!” in bold script, surrounded by bats, ghosts, and a grinning jack-o’-lantern. Rising dramatically from the center is a Tri-Color Moses-in-the-Cradle (Tradescantia spathacea ‘Tricolor’) with bold upright sword-like leaves striped in green, cream, and pink with rich deep purple undersides. Spilling out and trailing beautifully alongside it is a Tradescantia zebrina with its iconic silver-banded green leaves and vivid purple undersides — a classic for good reason. The LECA drainage layer is fully visible through the clear glass walls. Built on a foundation of organic LECA for drainage and planted in a rich organic soil mix for long-term root health.
