Re: Plants for Hanging Basket /pots in Pakistan
Try senecio rowleyanus or commonly called 'string of pearls' or senecio radicans common name 'string of bananas plant', they can tolerate both, full shade and full sun.

Re: Plants for Hanging Basket /pots in Pakistan
String of pearls are a sort of succulent but they are actually from the 'Aster' family, so like all succulents the drainage in the pots needs to be good if not the plant will rot, i will post the pics of my plant soon it is on flower these days. mix 2 parts coarse sand and 1 part fully rotted manure with the soil that you are using to improve drainage.rabia wrote:can you please give some care advice about string of pearls?I had a pot full of it and the beads were quite healthy but last summer it rotted all of a sudden.I was so careful in watering it during the monsoon but I lost itTahir Khan wrote:Try senecio rowleyanus or commonly called 'string of pearls' or senecio radicans common name 'string of bananas plant', they can tolerate both, full shade and full sun.
