Care suggestions :

LIGHT: Indirect light, shade, or early morning sun. Variegates are more sensitive to direct sun as the variegated parts lack the chlorophyll to process it. This makes them sunburn easily.

WATER: Variegated String of Pearls, like all succulents, don’t like to be waterlogged but this species can take more water than most. Allow the soil to dry out almost completely between watering during the warm growing season. Water once every two or three weeks during dormancy.

SOIL: Use a well-draining soil mix.

PLANTING: String of Pearls does best in places where its strings are able to hang or form ground cover. Baskets are perfect for letting the impressive strings hang where they can grow to over 50 cm long. Give this plant space to grow with a 20–25 cm pot with drainage holes. Garden walls and rockeries also allow this plant to spread and thrive.

Fertilizer: Use a general fertilizer twice a year to enhance new growth and the plant’s overall health. Over-fertilizing causes malformed growth.
