Type: Hanging Succulent
Ideal For:
- Vine lovers
- Succulent enthusiasts
General Care Instructions:
Light: Keep your String of Bananas in bright light, with some direct sun (but not all day) to encourage leaf growth. If you notice large spaces between leaves, the chances are the plant is not getting enough light.
Water: The String of Bananas is a semi-succulent plant, which means it is more tolerant of dry soil than wet soil and is prone to rotting in wet soil. You should water it sparingly--if in doubt do not water! You can always add more water. We would recommend watering every 10 - 15 days depending on how drafty your home is. The top soil should be dry before watering.
