String of pearls plants are unique vining succulent! They are easily recognizable by their tiny pea-shaped leaves. The leaves grow on trailing stems that gracefully spill over the sides of planters and hanging baskets much like the other string succulents. You can use these stems to propagate the plant, which is a robust and quick grower—gaining about five to 15 inches per year
-
Watering Schedule: Water your string of pearls only when the soil is completely dry. Stick your finger into the soil to check—if it feels dry a couple of inches down, it’s time to water. In general, water it every 2-3 weeks in the growing season (spring and summer), and even less often in the fall and winter when the plant is dormant.
-
Proper Drainage: Ensure the pot has good drainage holes to allow excess water to escape. String of pearls doesn’t like sitting in waterlogged soil, which can lead to root rot.
-
Well-Draining Soil: Use a cactus or succulent potting mix, or make your own by adding sand or perlite to regular potting soil. This ensures the soil doesn’t retain too much moisture.
-
Bright, Indirect Light: Place the plant in a bright south or west spot but avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the pearls. A sunny windowsill is ideal.
-
Don’t Mist: Avoid misting as string of pearls doesn't require humidity. Overwatering can lead to root rot and other issues, so misting can contribute to excess moisture.
