Believe it or not, there are a few that grow well under relatively dry
conditions. Tradescantia pallida, T.hirta, Callisia navicularis and Cyanotis
somaliensis for example.

Does Spiderwort like sun or shade ?

I have some in sun, others have reseeded themselves into semi-shady
places
and done well. Deep shade they're not too fond of. So the rule of thumb
for
Tradescanthia's are semi-shady to sunny
madgardener

I also find that they like even moisture and don't do well in dry areas.
