  •   String Of Pearls Senecio Rowleyanus is a trailing succulent native to the dry, rocky regions of southwestern Africa. This plant belongs to the Asteraceae family and evolved to store water in its distinctive spherical leaves, making it naturally drought tolerant. It remains one of the most recognizable indoor succulents grown worldwide.

      It is recognizable by long, cascading stems lined with small, pea-shaped green leaves that resemble a strand of beads. Each pearl-like leaf is a water reservoir, smooth to the touch with a faint translucent stripe running along its surface. The trailing stems can reach impressive lengths, giving this cascading succulent a bohemian look that spills from a hanging basket or high shelf.

      It produces small, white, daisy-like flowers with a sweet, cinnamon-like fragrance when conditions are right. Blooms typically appear in late winter to early spring and require a nighttime temperature drop to trigger flowering.

      Hang it in a bright spot or place it on a high shelf where the trailing stems can spill freely. You can leave it up to ten days without water. Move it outside for summer in a sheltered spot with indirect light, but provide cover from rain to prevent root rot. This plant is pet friendly. Propagate it easily by laying stem cuttings on moist succulent soil or placing them in water. Roots develop within two to three weeks in bright indirect light.

  •   String Of Pearls Senecio Rowleyanus grows well in bright indirect light and scorches in harsh south-facing windows with intense direct sun.

      Water it deeply every 10 to 14 days in summer and reduce to once a month in winter.

      String Of Pearls Senecio Rowleyanus needs a fast-draining succulent or cactus mix blended with extra perlite for best results.

      It prefers temperatures between 60 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit and should be protected from frost below 30 degrees Fahrenheit.

      String Of Pearls Senecio Rowleyanus is a moderate to fast grower that benefits from light balanced fertilizer once a month during the active growing season.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 9 through 11, tolerating minimum temperatures around 25 to 30 degrees Fahrenheit before frost damage occurs. It grows outdoors year-round in California, Arizona, Texas, Florida, Hawaii, Nevada, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina, as well as along the Oregon coast. Zone 8 gardeners in parts of North Carolina, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and the Pacific Northwest can move it outside in warmer months with winter protection.

    Q: What size pot should I use?

    🌵 For Succulents
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
    Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
