Plant Care Tips & Tricks

String of Turtles

The String of Turtles is a charming, low-maintenance plant known for its delicate, round leaves patterned with striking turtle shell-like markings. Its trailing vines add a touch of elegance to any space, making it perfect for hanging baskets or shelves.

Lighting: Bright, indirect light is necessary for this plant to maintain its colouring. Keep out of direct sun which may burn the leaves. Insufficient light can cause the plant to become leggy and reduce its trailing growth.

Irrigation: Allow the soil to mostly dry between thorough irrigations.

Humidity: This plant does not require added humidity. It prefers a dry environment.

Fertilizer: Regular applications of a slow-release fertilizer during the spring & summer. Follow package instructions.
