String of Hearts Care Instructions
Light:
- As mentioned in the String of Hearts Care Guide, don’t leave this guy outside in too much sun. When you see the leaves shrinking, move it to a more shady spot immediately.
- Small doses of direct sun are good, however too much direct sun can scorch the leaves. This plant is suitable for lower light environments
Watering:
- This beautiful plant seem to require more watering than other succulents because the leaves are semi-succulent and don’t store as much water as the String of Pearls for example (link to String of Pearls). On the positive side, we have never had a case of one dying from overwatering, it seems to cope well – very different to Echeverias (link to one of those) that tend to die quickly if overwatered for even short period.
- These succulents love moist air and can even do well in basements.
Soil Mix:
Treat this beauty like a succulent. Any well-draining soil will do. There are so many different potting mediums that you can use. As long as they drain well, you are good to go!
