Alluring, showy and irresistibly tactile - Senecio 'Angel Wings' is a new foliage plant with huge appeal! The large, silvery leaves are covered in a soft, silky down that makes this plant capable of withstanding salt laden winds and hot, dry conditions once established.
This curious succulent makes an intriguing trailing plant for your home. Senecio 'String of Pearls' has long, thread-like stems with fleshy foliage that resembles glossy, green beads.
There are so many different succulents to choose from, but few that look quite like this! Long slender stems are strung with bead-like foliage that cascades downwards, giving it the common name of Senecio 'String of Pearls'.
Senecio ?String of Teardrops? is a stunning trailing succulent.
A half hardy perennial best treated as a half hardy annual, this is a showy bedding plant producing a 20-25cm (8-10in) mound of finely divided silvery white foliage. Use it as an edging to the border, as feature plants or in pots
This trailing succulent looks perfect cascading from a hanging pot in front of a bright window
Senecio herreianus, AKA the string-of-pearls or string-of-beads plant, is a trailing, succulent vine and one of the rising stars of social media sharing! Looking just like a string of green beads, its perfect for hanging baskets or cascading from shelves - the String of Beads appreciates room to trail and is perfectly photogenic. The pea-sized leaves (which allow for the storage of water while at the same time minimising water loss) are produced on trailing stems which can grow 60-90 cm (2-3 ft). In its natural habitat, the stems trail on the ground, rooting where they touch and forming a dense mat. Each rounded leaf has a thin band of dark green tissue on the side known as an 'epidermal window' which allows light to enter and irradiate the inside of the leaf, effectively increasing the area for photosynthesis - a clever plant indeed. Senecio blooms during the summer with clusters of small white flowers with colourful stamens. The flowers last about a month and are said to smell like cinnamon and other spices to some people. Easy to grow and low maintenance, like most succulents the string of pearls will tolerate infrequent watering and just a few hours of direct sunlight every day. Good soil drainage is essential though to prevent problems and we recommend that you use a cactus mix when potting. Note Decorative pot in images is for display purposes only and is not supplied.

Please note that the decorative pot is not included.Care GuideBest grown in bright light with some direct sun in well-draining compost. Keep lightly watered during the growing season (spring to autumn) and cut back in winter, watering just enough to prevent the soil from drying out. Beads that look flat are a sign that the soil is too dry. Take care not to overwater as it will not tolerate soggy soil. As a succulent, the String of Pearls will not tolerate the cold and needs a minimum of 5C being frost tender. It can be grown outside in the summer months, but keep it shaded from the hot midday sun. Plants can be fed once a month during their growing season with a half-strength liquid feed.This product is offered for sale for home delivery exclusively via our website only.
