The Story Behind This Plant
String of Pearls Variegata, botanically Curio rowleyanus, is native to the dry regions of South Africa, growing as ground cover or cascading over rocky terrain in the wild. This variegated form is a color mutation of the standard green variety, prized for its creamy patterned beads.
How to Keep Pearls Variegata Happy

- Water: Let the soil dry out completely between waterings, roughly every 2 to 3 weeks. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
- Humidity: Prefers low to moderate humidity, suiting most indoor environments well.
- Soil: A well draining cactus or succulent mix works well, with added sand or perlite.
