Know before you buy
This plant performs best in bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid placing it in harsh, direct sun, which can scorch the delicate, bead-like leaves.
It is best to let the soil dry out completely between waterings. Because this is a succulent, it stores water in its leaves, so overwatering can quickly lead to root rot.
No, the String of Pearls is considered toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. It is best kept in a hanging basket or on a high shelf out of reach of curious pets.
Average household humidity is generally sufficient for this succulent. While it appreciates a slightly more humid environment, it does not require a dedicated humidifier or misting.
Yes, it can be kept outdoors in a shaded or protected area during warmer months. Just ensure it is shielded from direct afternoon sun and brought back inside before temperatures drop.
