Description
Create a stunning cascading display with String of Pearls (Senecio rowleyanus), one of the most distinctive trailing succulents available. Its long, slender stems are adorned with perfectly round, bead-like leaves that resemble a string of green pearls, making it an eye-catching addition to any indoor plant collection.
Native to the dry regions of southwest Africa, String of Pearls has adapted to store water within its spherical leaves, making it exceptionally drought tolerant and easy to care for. As it matures, its trailing stems can cascade elegantly from hanging baskets, shelves and plant stands, creating a dramatic waterfall of vibrant green foliage.
Supplied as a healthy potted plant, String of Pearls thrives in bright conditions and rewards minimal care with steady growth throughout the warmer months. Given the right environment, mature plants may even produce small, white, cinnamon-scented flowers, adding further interest to this already remarkable succulent.
Whether you’re looking for a statement trailing plant or an easy-care succulent for a bright room, String of Pearls is a timeless favourite that brings character and elegance to any home.
How to Care for String of Pearls
• Place in a bright position with plenty of indirect light and a few hours of gentle direct sun each day.
• Allow the compost to dry out completely between waterings.
• Use a free-draining cactus or succulent compost.
• Water sparingly during winter when growth naturally slows.
• Feed monthly during spring and summer with a diluted cactus or houseplant fertiliser.
• Avoid overwatering, as excessive moisture is the most common cause of plant decline.
