Senecio Herreianus Variegata

The Senecio herreianus variegata, also known as String of Tears Variegata, is a captivating and delicate succulent that brings a touch of elegance and uniqueness to any indoor space. With its cascading vines and beautifully variegated, tear-drop-shaped leaves, this plant is a showstopper and a must have for any plant collector.

Key Features:

• Variegated Leaves: The String of Tears Variegata features small, tear-shaped leaves with stunning variegation. The leaves display soft hues of green, cream, and pale yellow, creating a striking contrast that catches the eye.
• Trailing Growth: This succulent has a trailing growth habit, making it perfect for hanging baskets, shelves, or as a decorative cascade from high planters. It can grow several feet long when happy and healthy.
• Delicate and Unique: The small, bead-like leaves have a soft, tear-drop shape, which gives the plant its "String of Tears" name. The variegated version adds an extra layer of visual interest with its unique colouring.

Care Instructions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate some direct sunlight, too much can cause leaf burn. It thrives in well-lit spots but should be protected from harsh midday sun.
• Watering: Like most succulents, it is drought-tolerant and should be watered sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings to prevent root rot.
• Soil: Ensure the soil is well-draining. A cactus or succulent mix works best, promoting airflow and drainage for healthy roots.
• Temperature: Keep in a warm, temperate environment. It does not tolerate frost, so keep it in a space with temperatures above 10°C.
