How to Care for String of Pearls in New Zealand

Senecio rowleyanus loves bright, indirect light but will tolerate some shade. A well-draining cactus or succulent mix is essential to prevent root rot. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings—these beauties store water in their plump leaves, so less is more. Trim wayward vines to encourage fuller growth, and watch your plant thrive year-round with minimal fuss. In terms of propagation, simply snip a strand, lay it on moist soil, and tiny roots will soon form, letting you multiply your plant easily.
