Senecio Herreianus- String of Watermelons
Add a whimsical touch to your succulent collection with Senecio Herreianus, affectionately known as the "String of Watermelons"! This delightful trailing succulent is native to South Africa and boasts adorable, plump, oval leaves that resemble miniature watermelons. Its unique foliage and cascading growth habit make it a charming addition to hanging baskets, shelves, or trailing over the edges of pots.
Features:
Adorable Watermelon-like Leaves: The most captivating feature of this succulent is its small, round, watermelon-shaped leaves, typically green with translucent stripes that resemble the rind of a watermelon.
Trailing Growth Habit: This plant has a trailing or cascading growth habit, with stems that can grow several feet long, adorned with these delightful watermelon-like leaves.
Delicate Blooms: Small, white or off-white daisy-like flowers bloom from spring to fall, adding a touch of elegance and attracting pollinators.
Easy Care: This low-maintenance succulent thrives in well-draining soil with moderate watering and bright, indirect sunlight. It is relatively easy to propagate through stem cuttings.
Versatile: Perfect for hanging baskets, trailing over shelves, or as a unique ground cover in warmer climates.
Care Tips:
Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
Water: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot. Water more frequently during the growing season (spring and summer).
Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix.
The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 130mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
