Got my first string of pearls (a straggly lil 3” pot) in July….this is him, and his offspring, now 🀩
Why the notoriously high maintenance ones are effortless, but it takes me years to grow two leaves on a pothos, I’ll never understand. But not complaining 😁😁😁 I guess I’m just a β€œsuccer” #HappyPlants #StringOfPearls #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove #PropagationStation #PropDontShop
0ft to light, indirect
4” pot with drainage
Last watered 5 days ago
Wow this is impressive!!! You’re the master!
Very impressive!
@elisenavidad SUCCess lol (I can’t help myself)
@JunkMstrFlash you’re killing me !! I have had the same darn string of pearls almost a year and no new growth! πŸ˜­πŸ« πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ™ŒπŸ»
@CourtlyKingfern I’m happy to share all the deets on what I do! I’m honestly shocked lol it’s my first time with this notorious breed, and I had low expectations. Typically I seem to have a strange knack for putting plants into some oddly inert coma state. 🀣 I want them to feel good about themselves tho, so I tell them how proud I am for their commitment and service to the sustainability movement 🀣
Do you just lay them in there & let them root?
@JunkMstrFlash stunning!!! I am just getting started with this plant and I hope mine looks Iike your someday.
@JunkMstrFlash question: when you water your pearls do you top of bottom water? I’ve been told by a lot on here bottom water only! I did that with a 2 inch mini pot I had and I think I let it sit too long. The other one I have came in a pot that has drainage, but it’s a ceramic pot that I can’t bottom water in so I have to top water. I’m trying to NOT kill them and get them to look and thrive like yours! I’m like you, easy plants (spider plants) I can’t keep alive, but give me a β€œdifficult” one (like my rattle snake prayer plant) and they just thrive! πŸ˜‚ No clue whyπŸ˜‚
Impressed. Mine was tiny when I got it and I think it has SHRUNK. πŸ˜‚
Wow this is incredible! I killed my String of Pearls in under a month, so kudos to you !!! These look so beautiful 🩷
Oh my gosh, they’re beautiful! I just got my hands on a lil’ String of Pearls and I’d love some tips if you have any πŸ₯°
