About String of Tears

If you walk the desert of South West Africa, you'll find the String of Tears rooting as a succulent groundcover. While they hang beautifully in a basket, they spread like a vine across the desert floor.  They grow with minimal watering and will root wherever they touch. The shape of their leaves is an adaptation to their environment and a way to store water. Their minimal leaf surface reduces evaporation and water loss.

Care Level: I'm Easy

Pet Friendly: Warning

Toxic to pets if ingested.

Origins: Southwest Africa
