The String of Pearls, also known as Senecio rowleyanus, is a unique trailing succulent from the daisy family, admired for its distinctive cascading growth habit. This plant is also commonly called string of beads, string of peas, and rosary vine. 

The String of Pearls gets its name from its distinctive, long, trailing stems that are adorned with small, spherical leaves that resemble pearls. Each of these bead-like leaves features a unique translucent “window”, a thin, clear strip that allows light to pass into the leaf for photosynthesis. These little green pearls hang delicately from the stems, creating a beautiful cascading effect. In its natural habitat, the stems trail along the ground, rooting where they come into contact, and form dense mats.

Native to South Africa, this charming string of pearls houseplant features trailing stems with pea-like or tiny melon-shaped leaves spilling over planters and hanging baskets, much like its closely related plant string of rubiesGo to othonna capensis ruby necklace.

Your String of Pearls typically grows up to 2 feet long rather than tall, as it is a naturally trailing and hanging plant. 

The moderately fast-growing nature of this string of pearls plant makes it a great choice for a variety of landscapes.

The flowers of the string of pearls bloom during the spring and summer months, with white flowers along the stalk and bright yellow anthers. However, it's important to note that String of Pearls plants are primarily grown for their unique bead-like foliage rather than their flowers. Nonetheless, if your string of pearl plants does flower, it's definitely a treat to behold!

When and How to Water Your String of Pearls Plant

String of Pearls is a drought-tolerant succulent that thrives with minimal watering. To keep your plant healthy, allow the soil to dry out between waterings, and only water when the top inch of soil feels dry. The spring of pearls plant prefers watering every 10-14 days in the growing season, and every 3-4 weeks in the dormant season.

During the spring and summer growing season, water every 10–14 days on average. As the plant actively grows, it may require slightly more frequent watering, especially in warm or bright environments. 

In fall and winter, reduce watering to about once every 3–4 weeks. Since the plant enters a semi-dormant phase, it uses less moisture and is more vulnerable to overwatering. 

Too much water can quickly kill a String of Pearls plant, so it’s always safer to underwater than to overwater. Using terracotta or clay pots helps absorb excess moisture and keeps roots healthier by preventing soggy soil conditions.

Light Requirements - Where to Place Your String of Pearls 

When grown indoors, place it near a window that receives bright indirect sunlight for at least 4-6 hours a day. South-facing or west-facing windows are usually the best choices. You can also use artificial grow lights to provide the necessary light if natural sunlight is limited.

When growing outdoors, your low-maintenance string of pearls prefers full sun to partial shade to thrive. Four hours of direct morning or evening sun can also be beneficial for your Senecio rowleyanus, but be careful not to expose it to intense, direct sunlight for extended periods, as it can scorch the leaves of your String of Pearls succulent.

Keep an eye on your string of pearl succulents for any signs of light stress. If the leaves start to turn yellow or brown, it could be a sign that the light is too intense. On the other hand, if the leaves become elongated and spaced out, it might indicate that your pearl succulent is not receiving enough light. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

Use a well-drained soil for your Senecio rowleyanus, and NPK fertilizer (5-10-5) once a year in spring for healthy growth. Planet Desert has got your back with our specialized succulent potting mix or cactus soil mix that includes 5 natural substrates with organic mycorrhizae, perfect for promoting shallow root systems and happy String of Pearls succulents.

Apply the NPK fertilizer once a year in the spring of about 5-10-5 ratio, to provide a gentle boost of nutrients. However, during the cooler months or when your Senecio rowleyanus is in a dormant phase, it's best to avoid fertilizing altogether. 

If you notice any signs of fertilizer burn, such as leaf discoloration or wilting, flush the soil with water to remove any excess nutrients. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

In the United States, this is mostly an indoor plant, but if you live in southern Florida or Hawaii, then you can cultivate it outdoors in USDA zones 9-12. 

When it comes to humidity, the String of Pearls is adapted to low-humidity environments.

It can tolerate average indoor humidity levels, but it's important to avoid excessive moisture around the plant.

Ensure good air circulation and avoid placing your String of Pearls in areas prone to high humidity, such as bathrooms or kitchens.

Pretty Darn Good
Format: Kindle
So I’ve been on a omega kick and this definitely hit the spot. Madison was frustrating at times with how she acted towards Lucas, Gray, and Rian. It was like she said towards the end, she didn’t believe she deserved nice things. It would have been nice to hear from her best friends again. They kind of were there in the beginning and the gone except for mention of text messages received from them. I feel like her friends would have been great help in encouraging Madison to go with the pack and never give Brent another chance because he was toxic. I loved Rian. His personality was awesome. His humor. His ability to make Madison comfortable whenever she was feeling overwhelmed. And the fact he fell for her and she fell for him first. They are cute together. I do feel like Lucas was the odd man out though. Like Lucas didn’t develop as much of a relationship with Madison. I would have really liked to see more development in the relationship between them. It was also the same with him and Rian. There is really no relationship displayed. Most of the relationship being displayed is between Rian and Gray. Nevertheless, I loved reading about the dynamic that came to fruition during the entirety of this story. Madison finally got her happiness. And Brent finally got punched in the face. Everyone got exactly what they deserve.

Pack's Promise was okay but not great
Format: Kindle
Pack's Promise was okay but not great. I won't recommend it to anyone that I know. PRO: * Very likable characters * Lots of steamy scenes that are written very well * The spelling and grammar are good * The punctuation is good with the exception of using hyphens instead of commas. Lots of hyphens. Lots and lots of hyphens. CON: * Almost no interactions with any characters outside of Madison and the pack * Nearly no plot. They meet, get together for a heat, agree to make it permanent, done * Quite a few typos such as extraneous words, missing words and words out of order THINGS TO KNOW: * More steamy scenes than storytelling * A lot of MM & MMM, some MFMM during heat

Fluffy and Nice Omegaverse
Format: Kindle
… this would have made 5 stars but for 2 reasons. A.) there were quite a few typos; misspelled words, missing quotations, “the his” mistakes, and various signs that maybe a proofread would do good. B.) the writing was quite textbook. Late blooming omega is struggling with her new self, finds a absurdly wealthy pack of alphas, every thing is almost insta-love but she resists, then decides to love herself and let everyone be happy. Rian was my favourite (obviously the author’s favourite too because he got the most page time) but I wish we could see more of his CEO side? He went to work maybe ONCE the entire time. Gray was supposed to be the “growly one” but he turned out to be puppy dog. Lucas was a genius brainiac doctor - but also super alpha with an aggressive hindbrain with a breeding k*nk?? And then there was no actual “breeding”?? Spice 3/5 - normally omegaverse books are super high on messy smut but this was tamer. Romance 3/5 - insta-love that was then resisted because of personal hangup’s Plot 2/5 - weird paced head hopping, showing the same scene from different POV’s that made me feel like it was 2 steps backward, 1 step forward. Humour 4/5 - there were a dozen lines that genuinely made me chuckle out loud Would have been five stars but the lack of proofreading and the predictable plot made me unable to get up to ADORED IT level - four stars is still and official ENJOYED IT, y’all. This isn’t a bad rating. The “Club Heat” has intriguing possibilities so I’m going to give the second one a shot.
