About

The Senecio family comprises a variety of succulents (and strangely, a few flowering shrubs) including the popular String of Pearls. Senecio Herreianus, the String of Bananas, has an altogether different look -- this one carries a darkish blue shade and a dusty appearance on the leaves and vines. This purple flush has a lovely purple tint to its long beautiful stems. This succulent grows quickly but due to its delicate structure needs quite a lot more water than succulent-keepers expect.

Pot size: 14cm

Plant Care

Light: These succulents can actually tolerate more shade than you'd expect a succulent to be able to. Put in a bright but indirect light, and keep it warm.

Water : Let dry through, and then give a good drenching and let it drain. Don't let it sit in water or allow it to remain soggy for long periods. Water thoroughly about once a week in the summer and perhaps gently once every two weeks in the winter. Radicans can tolerate higher-humidity environments than other succulents too, so it would be ideal for a bright kitchen, or also it would be an appropriate plant for a bright shower room.
