Description & Care
String of Pearls is a unique and delicate-looking succulent that is native to the arid regions of Africa. The plant is known for its small, round leaves that resemble pearls and trail down from a hanging basket or container.
To care for String of Pearls, follow these tips:
Light: String of Pearls prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Water: Allow the soil to dry out completely between watering, then water deeply. Be careful not to over-water, as this can cause the roots to rot.
Temperature: String of Pearls prefers warm temperatures between 60-70°F (15-21°C).
Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix.
Fertilizer: Fertilize String of Pearls every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced cactus or succulent fertilizer.
Prune: If the plant becomes too long, you can prune it back to the desired length. Make sure to use clean, sharp scissors or shears to avoid crushing the delicate leaves.
Propagation: String of Pearls is easy to propagate by taking stem cuttings and allowing them to callus over before planting them in well-draining soil.
With proper care, String of Pearls can be a beautiful and unique addition to any houseplant collection.
