The Senecio rowleyanus, commonly known as String of Pearls, is an easy-care hanging plant. This cascading succulent really is the pearl of all BabyPLNTS! This cutie owns her nickname to the characteristic small green balls on the plant that are similar to pearls. The rowleyanus is a woman of many names, even referred to as ‘Pearl Plant’ and ‘String of Beads’.
The String of Pearls is one of the smallest baby plants in a growing pot out there. With her cute little balls, she is a real addition to your plant family! Like other succulents, the Baby String of Pearls doesn't need much water. She stores water in her ‘pearls’ and looks at her best when her pearls have a fresh green colour and are firm to the touch. Although it is tempting to touch the pearls, you’d better not: she is pretty sensitive and her pearls can easily fall off.
The Senecio Rowleyanus 'String of Pearls' trails quickly and likes to be placed on a shelf or in a hanging basket. She is known for her long, slender stems, but if you want to control the length and grow her into a fuller plant, feel free to give her a haircut. The string of pearls plant will branch out where you make the cut, so this will make your pruned plant grow back fuller. And because she is easy to propagate, you can simply use the stems you cut off to grow a brand new baby.
The String of Pearls likes bright, indirect light. Being a succulent, she is very sensitive to overwatering. If you give her too much water, the pearls will literally burst and give her a shriveled look. Therefore, when in doubt, think too little rather than too much water. Just like other succulents, she stores water in her leaves, so even if the top layer of potting soil feels a bit dry, just sit back and do not offer her a drink immediately.

October 21, 2023It's so fragile, so many "pearls" fell off when I first handled it, that it got me worried. Fortunately, this one is way more robust than it may seem at first. It has had a massive growth spurt since then and it's getting more lush by the day.

February 08, 2022This little guy arrived in not such a good condition, with several of its pearls destroyed and two strings without any pearls. so I wrote to the support team, and they were very fast and helpful, and refunded me for the plant. The other plant I ordered is happy and fully healthy though. Maybe its just my luck!

November 13, 2020The soil was too wet, so the vines started rotting and my plant unfortunately died. I was given a full refund though, and would still order other plants from the site as I have many other plants from here that have done well.
