Monilaria pisiformis
string of pearls
Description
Monilaria pisiformis, commonly known as the String of Pearls or the Pickle Plant, is a captivating succulent native to South Africa. Its most distinctive feature is its cylindrical, pea-shaped leaves that grow in long, cascading strings. These unique leaves change shape throughout the year, often becoming more elongated during the growing season. The plant produces small, daisy-like flowers in shades of yellow or white. Monilaria pisiformis thrives in bright, indirect light and well-draining soil. It is drought-tolerant and should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. This makes it a great choice for both beginner and experienced succulent enthusiasts.
