How to care
Senecio rowleyanus, commonly known as String of Pearls, is a unique succulent with bead-like leaves that cascade elegantly. It thrives in bright, indirect light and requires well-draining soil to prevent root rot. This plant is perfect for hanging baskets, allowing its trailing stems to grow freely. It's drought-tolerant, making it ideal for those who may forget to water regularly.
