String of Pearls Variegata

String of Pearls Variegata is a color variant of the classic String of Pearls, with the same round, bead-like leaves marked in cream, white, and green. It has the same easy going, drought tolerant nature as the standard variety, just with a bit more visual interest in each bead.

Why People Like Pearls Variegata

🌿 Creamy Variegated Beads

Each bead carries streaks of cream and white alongside the classic green, giving it more visual texture than the standard variety.

🍃 Long Trailing Vines

Its vines can grow 2 to 3 feet long with the right light and care, cascading nicely from a hanging basket.

💧 Drought Tolerant

Like other String of Pearls varieties, it stores water in its beads and does not need frequent watering.

🌿 Great for Hanging Displays

Its cascading habit makes it a natural fit for hanging planters, shelves, or vertical gardens.

All the Details You Need to Know

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
  • Light: Bright, indirect light works best. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can scorch the leaves.
  • 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.
  • Temperature: Normal room temperature is fine, away from cold drafts.

Bring Home String of Pearls Variegata

We hand pick each String of Pearls Variegata and pack it carefully so it arrives in good shape anywhere in Ontario or Quebec.

Light: Bright

Provide your plant with ample natural light, but be cautious of intense afternoon sun. A well-lit room with filtered sunlight is ideal for optimal growth.

Sun: Direct - Indirect

Place your String of Pearls Variegata in a location with bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the delicate leaves.

Water: When Fully dry

Water your String of Pearls Variegata sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so err on the side of underwatering rather than overwatering.

Humidity: Low

String of Pearls Variegata plants prefer moderate humidity levels. If your home is particularly dry, consider misting the plant occasionally or placing a small humidifier nearby.

Pet Friendly: Caution

String of Pearls Variegata is considered mildly toxic to pets if ingested. Keep it out of reach of curious pets to prevent any potential adverse reactions.

Pro Tip

String of Pearls Variegata plants are sensitive to overwatering, so it's crucial to ensure proper drainage in the pot. Use a well-draining soil mix and a pot with drainage holes to prevent water from pooling at the bottom. Additionally, consider using a terra cotta pot, which helps absorb excess moisture from the soil. This simple step can prevent root rot and keep your String of Pearls thriving.
