4" String of Watermelons

String of Watermelons (Curio herreanus, formerly Senecio herreanus)
The String of Watermelons is a trailing succulent closely related to the String of Pearls, but its leaves are slightly larger and oval-shaped with beautiful striped markings that resemble miniature watermelons. It’s a charming hanging plant that adds a playful, cascading touch to shelves, window sills, or hanging baskets.

Care Tips:
☀️ Light: Bright, indirect light is best; can handle some morning or late afternoon sun
💧 Water: Water sparingly; allow soil to dry completely between waterings
🌫 Humidity: Prefers dry air; avoid overly humid conditions
❄️ Temperature: Warm indoor temps (60–85°F); protect from frost
🐾 Pet Friendly: No (toxic to pets if ingested)

Fun Fact: Like String of Pearls, the String of Watermelons has translucent “leaf windows” that allow sunlight to penetrate deeper into the leaves, helping with photosynthesis in dry, sunny environments. 🌱🍉
