String of Pearls (Senecio rowleyanus) ID & Care: Cactus Treatment

A "vine with pea-like pearls" is String of Pearls (Senecio rowleyanus). Treat like a cactus: sandy soil, bright light, water only when dry for days.

Care Essentials

  • Soil: Cactus/succulent mix (add extra perlite/pumice).
  • Light: Bright indirect to some direct sun.
  • Water: Thoroughly, then bone-dry before next. Overwatering kills fast.
  • Pot: Shallow, wide, with drainage.

Easy to kill with kindness. Neglect (within reason) works better.
