Hello,

I was asked by a co-worker to assist with a plant the needed some care. The problem is I do not know the name of it so am not sure if the care I am giving it is correct.

I believe the name of the plant is the "PEA" plant, it has long hanging vine like strans that have things that look like peas all
the way down the stran. Some other people think it may be called a prayer bead plant.

The name and the best way to care for it are greatly needed.

Thank you,

Priscilla

Sounds like your friend has a string of beads, also called string of pearls. The latin name for the plant is Senecio rowleyanus.

I keep mine in bright indirect light, a little bit sun is ok, not a lot and not hot afternoon, they seem to do better without a lot of direct sun. Water thoroughly when the soil is very close to dry. Make sure the pot is small and the soil loose.
