Also, with the String of pearls, fertilize once a year in winter time (January) dilute ferlitilzer by 3 to make it weaker. Only one time fertilize, then keep twirling the string onto the top of the soil. Keep twirling so the stems keeps touching the soil, you can use ladies bobby pins to lightly force the stem to touch soil. The nodes are along the stem and will root at each node. I dont let mine hang till the pot is an inch thick all over the pot. This makes the strands strong so they cling to the soil and can take the weight of hanging. In hot, dry climate water often, every 5 days.... Cold climate,, every 10 to 12 days. They are winter growers and water lovers. I make my soil rocky as the pearls love water but dont like being wet, NO MISTING. I went thru 5 strands to figure this out. I now have a very large full pot. Hot hot climate indirect with trickle sunshine on THE TOP of the pot. Normal temps 80 F,,, full sun for 5 hours on top of pot. Summer always very bright indirect light. They will need that 1 time watered down fertilizer to really really take off.... And twirl, before you hang.... Twirl like pasta on the soil.... You will have much luck.
Thank you so much 😊
Ahhhh, that's something I don't do, maybe that is why my pearls are not as big as yours.
I like the idea of using ladies hair pin
I tried to grow many times String of pearls but when temperature go beyond 40 to 45°C the plant dies even in indirect sun light. Is there any solution of this problem
Very helpfull video 🎉🎉
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for mentioning how long it can take and being so thorough. I subbed!
Thanks for the sub! really appreciate your support 😊🪴
wishing you all the best
🤩🤩
thank you so much 😊
Nice! Thank for sharing, friend
Thank you 🙏 for sharing your very informative vedio about this plants your vedio is very helpful for me thanks for the great tips and care stay safe and greetings from California ❤️
I really enjoyed coming back to this video to refresh my memory on SOP care. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it! hahaha …I think once they are established they do quite well
OH NY GOSH I did not know that they actually propagate from just the balls! Never ever ever did I know that! I'm going to try it now! Everybody thought that bear paws couldn't be propagated just from the paws themselves either but a shipment that I just received from an Etsy shop proved otherwise. I've got a beautiful variegated bear paw with roots on it and a lot of them.
absolutely lol there has been so many times i might have thrown things away ...now realizing it could have work out lol .....yes i had dropped few just the pearls took a longer time but they did propagate :)
This is really helpful! Thank you for this video 💞

Thank u so much for sharing ..Many blessings
thank you for watching ☺️🪴…blessings to you as well have a wonderful day ahead 😊🪴
I wish I would have come across this before killing my string of pearls thrice. Now I got it 4th time and with all experience I have from mistake I made earlier and ur video clearing up all doubts hopefully I will be 5th time lucky. Thank you so much for this.
oh no yes initially it’s very tricky to handle them trust me ….but m sure now you will be able to handle them much better wishing you all the best 😊🪴
Thanks a lot for all the information.
thank you so much for watching 😊
Thank you so much for the valuable information 🙏
Thank you so much for watching mam ☺️
So much of hard work. . 7 to 8 months. .
A succulent parent really needs patience .
Can't thank you enough for sharing the information
yes it’s all about patience when it comes to succulents that’s the most important part
Thank you
you’re welcome 😊🪴
Also soil propogation is better than water . Whatever you comfortable in
yes i prefer soil works best :)
Thank you for another helpful video. I didn't know the pearl could be propagated, good to know.
thank you so much for watching…..yes they will but quite slow if you want to propagate go for stem ….individual pearls only if broken accidentally so it’s better not to throw them away ☺️
Good tip on adding drain holes from the inside of the pot.
thank you so much for watching ☺️
I so appreciate your help, thankyou, I too live in a hot, humid climate for most of the year, your info helps me x

Very helpful video ❤️❤️❤️

Yday i got a few pearls strings online all entiwined. What luck just saw your video.Truly informative.
Glad it helped
When I had found Mealy bugs on my regular and variegated string of pearls, after I took them out and treated them, because I was actually in the middle of repotting when I found the dreaded mealys, I had repotted them into a tray and laid them all out nicely but then they really got shriveled up and pretty unhappy and I didn't have a lot of hope for them but I didn't want to give up on them either. Well fast forward about a month and a half later and I've got super plump pearls again. They're really happy. But I think I saw signs of Neely's being back in them. Here's hoping not. But yeah, you're not wrong when you say it takes a while for them to plump back up after being dehydrated or unhappy. But mine still looks super duper happy thank God
yes I have noticed that we just need to wait for sometime and see what happen atlot of times we panic and that’s ends up killing the succulents 🙁
I agreed to you Frank , I have a white big hanging planter where in I planted this string of Pearl, they grew well but after few months
I noticed they are drying , some are dried and died, so to save them I decided to put them in small plastic basket .
So I decided to bought another 3 hanging plastic basket worth ( $10 each ) now I need to repot them,,, your always on time to help me my dear Guru . I’m learning about them more coz this string of Pearl is so beautiful. Thank you always Frank for your goodness sharing your knowledge .
God bless you friend 💕💕💕💕
thank you so much Jonah….yes initially I thought I almost lost it they were doing ok for 2-3 weeks and then they suddenly started to shrink and all got deflated in concrete pot I didn’t know what to do I tot I will lose them ….luckily they came back was so happy haha….it’s so heartbreaking to lose plants ….I hope and wish you all the luck they will be back and thriving ☺️…good luck and god bless Jonah ☺️
@@LushGardener
Yes indeed ,,, they are expensive and we put effort and time for them .
@@craftsplantsandsucculentsw1076 yes I always end up getting like 2-3 Strands while I think paying so much I must get an entire pot 😂
The variegated ones are even more expensive
Watching now ,,, I need this ,,I have 3 new basket last month,, needs to be transplant ..
Watching now ,,
thank you so much for watching ☺️
Even I tried a lot about the lighting it's a trick part . Always keep These Plant inside . Front of window that's where they do good
Thanks for sharing :)
Hi!!! This is the MOST HELPFUL VIDEO ON STRINGS OF PEARLS! Thank you!!! One question- can you tell me about how long it took for the individual pearls to grow into a cluster of them? Thank you!
thank you so much ..it took around 7-8 months
but i would recommend going with stem cutting . single pearls only if they break off accidentally ..single ones are little tricky
Really ? Those tiny Pearl can be propagated, awesome 😎
yes it takes quite some time but they do roots
and grow ☺️
@@LushGardener
Oh wow ! Nice to know ,,, I have a lot of patience dear ( lol 😂 )
Soo help ful video💚 I really get jealous of your insta pics😂
thank you so much for watching…haha I wish you all the luck hope you have a very beautiful gardern ☺️thanks again ☺️
@@LushGardener Thank you soo much🤩
Very helpful. Thank you!
How do you feel about clay pots?
I would say avoid clay if belong to very dry environment….clay will again pull out all the moisture quickly same like concrete pot ☺️
I got this recently (gifted). And summer is coming damn. Lol. But very good video thanks..
So hard to believe though that they are from senico family.
And I do have already bush senico. And it break my heart that these going to get dormant in summer.
💔
yes this variety in particular is very delicate i have seen so many variety but this one is the most tricky one
Very informative. What do you do when you go for a vacation? How do you handle the watering?
when I go out it’s very very rare usually the trip is less than a week so I water it just before I leave so that’s the advantage of having succulents ☺️…..they can do well till the time I com back
@UCPTSvcYjSkzil3duQFALAQQ hahah yes succulents Are best
Please can u make a video on string of hearts if you have it. Thank you
I haven’t grown that variety as it’s very dry here ..but incase I get it I will definitely ask a video on it 😊🪴
Very informative video Sir. Kindly elaborate on your potting mix. I think it will be very helpful.
for potting it’s remains the same gritty lose porous well draining just try to maintain very slight moisture in soil but not soggy wet 😊
Hi I live in an area with hot and humid climate. What kind of sun and water do you think my string of pearls need?
I have two beautiful variegated pots now and am desperately trying to save them!!
Am also about to repot them into dry succulent soil as I may have over watered.
No direct sun at all …only indirect bright light ….as your environment is humid I heard they are slightly challenging due to humidity….try to give a shallow pot and keep them in indirect bright light with good amount of air circulation
Hi, allow me a Q
After my fault is corrected by moving it to an indirect bright sun light spot from a direct 3 hrs one, would it live and restore healthy looking instead of shrinkage one?
if the pearls have extreme shrinkage or deflated they won’t bounce back but there will be new plump pearls coming up soon if the conditions are right 😊🪴
@@LushGardener ok gr8 and much appreciated
Will they not die or dry after a while or keep shrinkage forever? Just want to know when to lose hope
Amazing content as always. I recently got string of pearls from a nursery online. Thankfully they were not dehydrated in transit. The string is approximately a foot long and i have just planted the end in soil and let it hang. Should i add some more string to my pot to cover the soil or not?? Also what is the soil mix you used for pearls propagation because i received almost 50 pearls and tears in my package.
Also how long did it take to pearls to propagate as you showed… just need a time line so that i can be patient
Hey!!! Please reply
And also my string of pearls is quite long and has aerial roots… should i plant from the point it has aerial roots as well?
yes plant it… where you see aerial roots ….it’s a slow process of growth don’t disturb or move them once planted …it will take couple of months to show any visible growth ☺️
The pearls just keep on dying… i have planted the aerial roots as well and i am keeping the soil moist… maybe its the temperature… i live near delhi and the temperature is about 48 in the afternoon and is 40 above almost for 10 hours in a day.. so can you share your area so that we get an idea
@@artanecdote oh Delhi no wonder ..m from Bangalore so the temp is never above 35 c and now its the monsoon season :)....yes the heat will kill them ..they cant handle that much heat ...from my exp what i noticed string of pearls are the most delicate variety among all the strings
So you just keep it in bright light. I mean there should be light but no direct sunlight? I too kept it in bright light but the pearls are not as green as I see in the videos. Moreover I live in Central India and I have to water it every 3rd day as I find the top soil dry.
Yes its absolutely fine watering depends on your environment and soil and how soon the soil dries ...yes keep in a place we're there lots of light but not direct sun it will get Green slowly
@@LushGardener Thanks
Sir please give information about string of tear..... If any link of ur video on tear please send me
hello mam I don’t have that succulent yet but the care is exactly same as string of pearls ….care is almost similar to string of pearls …..string is tears is actually called Senecio Herreanus…..
the initial care is required just like pearls ….once you get the plant it will take around 1-2 months for the plant to adjust n new environment…you will experience shrinking of tears ,mushy tears and wrinkles this is all part of the plant getting acclimated so don’t worry but keep the watering schedule water when the soil is around 90 per dry ….don’t keep them underwater for long and don’t keep the soil dry for very long ….don’t want frequently ….nce they are completely acclimated they will show signs of thirst by putting wrinkling on tears…..but don’t expose to direct sun that’s the most important part keep them in indirect but bright very bright light that’s all …keep in shallow plastic container
@@LushGardener thank you so much....so helpful repl.
Does the same care goes for string of heart as well ?
not sure haven’t grown that variety 😒
this is what I got from google
Grow string of hearts in bright indirect light, out of direct sunshine. Water regularly in spring and summer, allowing the soil to completely dry out between waterings. Reduce watering in winter, and never let the plant sit in water as the roots can rot and kill the plant.
Sir plz which soil used for string of pearl
I use the same soil mix but I just increase the garden soil a-bit
70% aquarium sand and 30 percent filtered garden soil
How to water sop? Should i avoid water to touch the pearls? Try to water only on the soil?
yes avoid water on the pearls to be on the safer side …you can do bottom watering if pot is small or water only the soil from top …untill water passes the drain hole …don’t expose to direct sun that’s the most important part
@@LushGardener thankyou
Does this soil mix contain more soil compared to the current soil mix you are using??
same soil mix but i add an layer of regular soil over the top ..container is small
@@LushGardener and what is the reason behind adding regular soil over the top
Hello, what potting mix did you use? As my string of pearls are shriveling, after a month , I brought from the nursery.
mam I use the same soil what I use for other succulents but I use little extra soil on the surface like just one inch regular gardern soil…:
mam m not sure about the nursery soil cause a lot of nursery use cocopeat which is ideally not good for succulent …. we’re have u placed the string of pearls
@@LushGardener In a balcony with no direct sun.
@@shraddhavaidya1323 usually even I get initially they get shriveled I had similar experience and it’s takes around 2 months during this period need to be careful
@@shraddhavaidya1323 make a mix at home which is well draining lose don’t add cocopeat and keep it on indirect bright light ensure the soil is not soggy wet but maintain very very slight moisture 😊
@@LushGardener I'm extremely thankful for such detailed reply. May you get success in all your endeavors. Thankyou
Sir LG may I ask what is the level of handling for the string of pearls? Is string of dolphin better than string of pearls? Thanks
yes sop is the most delicate among a;; strings ...i would say string of tears is the most easiest
Seaweed fertilizer is helpful for the succulents or not?
yes absolutely it’s good but only during growing period and very very minimal quantities after dilution
Hi. How about soil? Sand?
yyes a mix of sand soil …either you can do a mix of sand and soil like 4:1 or 3:2 ….you can even add perlite or pumice it’s optional
Sir please explain about tangled heart and turtle vine also...they are dying every time...I placed them in different places in my house and balcony ...success rate was very less sir..I love them so much..but I am failing every time..please help me..and I placed this string of pearls in 3 places sir..but only one was survived that too the chances are 50-50..
oh I haven’t grow. both varieties as the terrace is very windy so I haven’t grown this variety but in future if I do will keep the video posted….
string of pearls mine dried completely but it’s growing now most probably it’s related with weather
I hope u too grow these two varieties and post the vedios very soon...and thank u soo much for your immediate response...happy gardening with lovely succulents😊🪴
@@lakshmiprasanna3257 haha hopefully don’t know I didn’t like both the varieties 😂😂so never got them
Oh really...🤣
Hi...need your advise
Yes mam please tell me 😊
@@LushGardener can you please suggest proper potting mix as my pearls became soggy n died...
@@diyadessai how long has it been you purchased them
@@diyadessai mam the soil has to be same lose porous well draining it will usually take time for them to adjust don’t over water and keep them indirect bright light it will take around 1-2 months for sop to completely adjust till then need to be careful
How do you get your pearls so fat? Mine, if i give them more light, they bleach out and lose their shine. Less light, they green up and become shiny but they are less than 1 centimeter in diameter.
yes don’t keep them in direct sun the pearls will fade …as they mature they will get plump and fat ☺️
sir where are you from
Bangalore :)
@@LushGardener humid and warm great sir
