Shipped in nursery pot
This plant is shipped in a disposable plastic nursery pot.
The String of Pearls also known as the Senecio Rowleyanus, is an easy caring hang plant. The plant comes from South Africa. It owes its name to the thick round leaves that look like pearls. The plant loves to have a light spot in the room, but don’t put it in direct sunlight.

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.

A cutie.
Elle est arrivée en pleine forme, ravie.

Je suis ravie des autres boutures commandées en même temps mais les 3 senecio sont arrivés dans un état déplorable. Replantés ensemble vu les dégâts afin d’obtenir un semblant de plante, je ne pense pas qu’elle va survivre. Je suis très déçue par les senecio et ne les recommande pas du tout.

a few strings fell off in the first week after transportation, since then the plant hasn’t lost any more pearls, but doesn’t seem to grow neither

much smaller than in picture. one string was squashed in a box, only two left growing.
Stacey Henry –
The 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.

The baby arrived smaller than the picture, but in a somewhat good condition. Some pearls were lost to shipping, but I hope it recouperates well and starts to trail for me soon.

I ordered 2, one is really healthy and bigger than the other one. The smaller one was too wet and started rotting, some pearls were also squashed or lost. So 1 died and 1 is awesome

Mine had about 4/5 strands filled with pearls. Has been putting out a lot of new growth; love this little guy so much

I like to order big size plants, they have established root system and they are more respond better to change of location, shipping. I ordered two baby size of string of pearls and potted them together. They look already healthy and full, but I know I will have to wait a little for the new growth.
