Plant Care Needs
• ☀: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Prefers at least 4-6 hours of sunlight per day. Protect from intense, direct sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day.
• 💦: Allow the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Water thoroughly, but infrequently, approximately every 1-2 weeks, depending on environmental conditions.
• 🪨: Use well-draining soil mix specifically formulated for succulents or cacti. String of Hearts Orange River prefers soil with good aeration to prevent root rot. We recommend a combination of The Mix and Tits & Grit Cacti & Succulent Mix! But either alone would do just fine!
• 🌡️: Prefers temperatures between 60°F to 75°F (15°C to 24°C). Tolerates a wide range of temperatures but protect from frost.
• ☁: Adaptable to normal indoor humidity levels. Does not require additional misting.
• ✂: Propagate String of Hearts Orange River through stem or leaf cuttings. Simply cut a healthy stem or leaf and allow it to callus for a few days before planting it in moist, well-draining soil.
• ⚖: Low maintenance. Suitable for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts.
• 💭:
- Fertilize sparingly with a balanced fertilizer diluted to half strength once every 2-3 months during the growing season (spring and summer).
- Prune any leggy or overgrown stems to maintain the plant’s shape and encourage bushier growth.
- Avoid overwatering, as String of Hearts Orange River is susceptible to root rot. Ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogged soil.
