Tradescantia Purple Passion care guide

Light requirements:
Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant purple tones. In lower light, the colour may fade slightly.

Watering:
Water when the top few centimetres of soil feel dry. Water thoroughly, then allow the soil to dry out again. Avoid leaving the roots sitting in water.

Feeding:
Feed once a month in spring and summer. For best results, use our vegan, organic Original Plant Food to encourage lush and colourful growth.

Humidity:
Enjoys average household humidity but appreciates an occasional misting.

Pet safety:
Mildly toxic if ingested — best kept out of reach of cats and dogs.

Propagation:
Very easy to propagate from stem cuttings. Simply snip a section of vine and root it in water or soil.

High quality
Color: 5pack, Size: Large
Our Aussie lives these toys! She hasn’t torn any up yet. She did manage to tear off an ear from the cheetah but the rest of the toy is intact after a lot of tugging and biting. Comes with 2 squeakers for more fun. She loves playing with these and will toss them up in the air and chase it by herself.

Mixed Bag of Dog Squeaky Toys for Small Dogs
Color: 12pack, Size: Small
I recently purchased the SHARLOVY Dog Squeaky Toys for Small Dogs, a pack of stuffed animal puppy toys, and while they offer some positive aspects, there are a few drawbacks that prevent me from giving them a higher rating. One positive aspect of this toy pack is the variety it offers. With 12 different plush dog toys included, there is a range of options to keep my small dog entertained and engaged. The cute designs and soft textures are appealing, and they provide a good selection for different play sessions. The squeaky feature of these toys can be entertaining for dogs, and it adds an element of interactive play. The squeaker is relatively durable and has held up reasonably well during playtime, adding an extra level of excitement for my dog. However, the durability of these toys is a concern. While they are suitable for small dogs and light chewers, they may not withstand the rigorous chewing of more aggressive chewers or larger breeds. The seams on some toys have come apart relatively quickly, resulting in stuffing coming out or potential choking hazards. It is important to supervise playtime and monitor the condition of the toys closely. Another drawback is the size of the toys. While they are marketed for small dogs, some of the toys in the pack are quite small and may pose a choking risk for dogs that are prone to swallowing or have a tendency to tear apart toys. It is essential to choose the appropriate toy size based on your dog's breed and chewing habits. In terms of value for money, the price point for this toy pack is reasonable considering the number of toys included. However, the longevity of the toys may impact the overall value, as they may need to be replaced more frequently for dogs that are rough with their toys. In conclusion, the SHARLOVY Dog Squeaky Toys for Small Dogs offer a variety of cute and soft toys that can entertain small dogs during playtime. The squeaky feature adds to the fun, but the durability of the toys and potential choking hazards are concerns. It is important to choose appropriate toy sizes and supervise playtime to ensure the safety of your furry friend. If you have a small dog and are looking for a variety of soft and squeaky toys, this pack may be worth considering. However, if your dog is an aggressive chewer or larger in size, it may be more prudent to explore more durable and size-appropriate options to ensure the toys can withstand your dog's play habits.

Not invincible but good value
Color: 5pack, Size: Large
Great value for the money. We have 3 dogs and they are pretty strong chewers. They lasted a few months but ultimately succumbed to their inevitable doom. They arrived well packaged and with no unusual odors.

Durable & Leather. For Small-Medium Dogs
Size: 15 in, Color: Retriever, Size: 15 in, Color: Retriever
This is a great dog toy! My Pomeranian is a small guy at only 8lbs. but he sure knows how to chew and he does it as often as he can. I was throwing out toy after toy because he was tearing them to pieces after only a half hour or so. After putting my money in the garbage so many times, I decided to search for toys that would hold up to his destructive mouth. I found a lot that claimed they wouldn't fall apart but they were all more than I wanted to spend. I came across this toy and a rabbit shaped one just like this. I bought both months ago and both are still in tact after all this time. Sure the edges are a little frayed but other than that, no damage whatsoever! I'm not sure what dura fused means but that seemed promising to me when I was reading the description, also the fact that they're leather made them seem more durable to me. Both have squeakers inside and some sort of stuffing as well. I throw all of my dogs toys in the laundry or hand wash them once a week, except for these. When these toys get wet with my dogs saliva, they look like they're not meant to get wet. Even without washing, these seem fine. This toy is probably about 9" long or so if I had to guess. In my opinion, it'd be perfect for a medium sized dog. It's a tiny bit big for my little guy but he manages just fine! If you're looking for a durable toy that your small to medium dog can chew on constantly, look no further!
