Gardeners, are you looking for a truly unique hanging plant for your Crassula plant collection? Look no further than the Crassula perforata, also known as the String of buttons or necklace vine! It gets its common name from its distinctive button-like leaves and trailing growth habit. 

The string of buttons is a succulent with square or triangle-shaped fleshy leaves that create a spiral shape around the plant's stem long enough to give it a stacked appearance resembling a string of buttons or beads. The gray-green leaves can take on a pink hue when exposed to sufficient light. Its unique appearance and fast-growing habit make it a real eye-catcher in any collection. 

The crassula perforata is a compact plant that can grow up to 18 inches tall and 3 feet wide. Its fleshy stems are upright at first and then become pendants over time, making them ideal for hanging baskets or cascading over the edges of shelves or containers.

In late spring to early summer, the Crassula perforata string of buttons produces small, star-shaped pale pink, white, or pale-yellow flowers. These delicate blooms add a touch of charm to the already stunning Crassula plants. 

To propagate Crassula perforata can be easily achieved by leaf cuttings or stem cuttings. Remember, the Crassula perforata is a species of succulent plant, while the Crassula perforata variegata - Variegated string of buttons is a variety of the stacked Crassula perforata species with variegated leaves. According to ASPCA, this string of buttons is safe for both humans and pets. 

 Watering Requirements

To water your Crassula perforata, simply give it a good drink when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Be sure to water thoroughly, allowing the water to soak through the soil and drain out of the bottom of the container. After watering, wait until the soil is completely dry before watering again. 

This lovely string of buttons prefers a watering routine that allows the soil to dry out between waterings. It's important to avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot and other issues. During the summer months or when this Crassula perforata is in a dormant phase, you can reduce the frequency of watering. This succulent plant is quite drought-tolerant, so it's better to underwater than to overwater. 

Remember, each Crassula plant's watering needs may vary depending on factors like humidity, temperature, and the size of the pot.  Always keep an eye on the soil's moisture level and make necessary adjustments to your watering schedule. 

Light Requirements 

The Crassula perforata thrives in bright full sunlight to light shade for at least 4-6 hours to maintain its compact foliage. If growing indoors, the string of buttons prefers a spot near a window where it can receive plenty of bright light throughout the day. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as this can scorch the leaves. 

If you notice that your Crassula perforata is stretching or leaning toward the light, it may be an indication that it needs more light. On the other hand, if the leaves start to turn yellow or brown, it could be a sign of too much direct sunlight. 

Finding the right balance of light for your Crassula perforata is key to its overall health and growth. So, keep an eye on its response to the light and adjust its placement accordingly. 

 Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

Crassula perforata thrives in well-draining soil with a pH of almost 5.6 - 6.5. A good choice is a succulent soil mix, which provides the right balance of moisture retention and drainage. Moisture can be a real killer, leading to root and stem rot in no time flat. But fear not my fellow green thumbs!  

Planet Desert has got your back with our specialized succulent potting mix that includes 5 natural substrates with organic mycorrhizae perfect for promoting healthy roots and happy Crassula plants. You can also create your own mix by combining regular potting soil with perlite or coarse sand to improve drainage. 

When it comes to fertilizing, Crassula perforata doesn't require frequent feeding. During the active growing season in spring, you can use a balanced natural fertilizer NPK. Apply the fertilizer once a year and avoid overfertilization as it can cause the death of the whole string of buttons succulent. However, it's important to avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive growth and weak stems. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

The crassula perforata string of buttons is generally hardy in USDA hardiness zones 9-11. The string of buttons, on the other hand, cannot handle frost, cold, or freezing temperatures, so make sure it doesn't get below 45 degrees Fahrenheit in its environment. It prefers temperatures between 60-75°F during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night. 

In terms of humidity, Crassula perforata is adaptable and can tolerate a range of humidity levels. These Crassula succulents can thrive in average indoor humidity, but it's important to avoid excessively dry air, especially during the winter months when indoor heating can cause low humidity. If the air in your home is particularly dry, you can increase humidity by using a humidifier or placing a tray of water near the plant to provide some moisture.

Be sure to add Crassula perforata - a string of buttons - to your collection today and elevate the beauty of your home or garden, with this stunning-looking plant.

Stylish Look and Comfortable for Daily Wear
Size: 9, Color: Navy Blue
I bought the SVNKE men’s fashion dress shoes mainly for casual office wear, and they’ve been a pleasant surprise. The design looks sharp and gives a nice mix between dress shoes and sneakers, so they work well with both business and casual outfits. They are surprisingly comfortable right out of the box. The cushioning is decent, and I’ve been able to wear them for most of the day without discomfort. They also feel lightweight, which makes them easy to walk in. The build quality is okay for the price—not premium, but solid enough for regular use. Overall, these are a great budget-friendly option if you want a versatile shoe that looks good and feels comfortable for everyday wear.

Better quality than the others!
Size: 10.5, Color: Dark Black, Size: 10.5, Color: Dark Black
I’ve had a pair of these in grey for over a year and was looking for black shoes to replace my worn out old ones, so I decided to give these a try. Just like the grey, these did not disappoint. They have a different/look design than the standard breeze/cole haan knockoffs you see everywhere. They look and feel a lot better. The insoles have more support and the outer sole is very cushioned, making them comfortable all day. With the other knockoffs, I usually buy an additional insole for support since they come with a laughable sponge laid in the shoe, which is an added expense. This alone makes the SVNKE a great option. If you like the different look of these, then definitely get them, you will appreciate the higher quality!

Fantastic purchase
Size: 12.5, Color: Black
Fantastic purchase. I had a trip to Spain planned and wanted shoes that would work both for lots of walking and also more dressy events so I bought these. After a nine day trip to Spain, walking over 20,000 steps a day through cobble stone streets I can report these shoes held up, were comfortable, gave no blisters, and all with virtually no break in time for the shoes. I wear a size 12 but bought a half size larger and it was a perfect fit. Definitely recommend these.

If you’re going for cushion and looks, these do it.
Size: 9.5, Color: Grey
These are massively cushiony. They fit as sized, slip on well, and look very good. It seems like they should hold up well.

Nice and affordable, but poor arch support and mushy insoles.
Size: 11 Wide, Color: Black
These shoes look nice and feel comfortable at first, but the soft memory foam type bottoms on these don't provide enough support. I am a big guy and find that over the course of the day the insoles compress and my feet end up at an angle. After a long day on my feet, my dogs are barking and my leg muscles are tight I think from walking on an angle. I added my GoodFeet arch support and they help a little with arch support, but the insole is so soft that it absorbs the bulge quite a bit. If you're skinny and need a decent looking pair of shoes on the cheap, they might be ok for you. I would not recommend long walks or strenuous activity in them. I will say they are lightweight, breathable and a decent value if you don't have flat feet and a beer belly (I don't even drink beer, how'd that happen, WTH?!)
