What is the symbolic meaning of the string of pearls plant, and where in the home is it suitable to place?

Would you like to have the feeling of a curtain of dreams on your own balcony? That's right, today the editor will share a round, plump hanging basket string of pearls. It gets its name because its shape looks just like one little Buddhist prayer bead after another, making anyone who sees it feel delighted, and especially under the sunlight it sways gently and looks very dreamy.

The hanging basket string of pearls symbolizes purity, understated elegance, calm and beautiful hope. As a highly ornamental succulent plant, how should it be cared for in daily life? First, it is recommended to hang it on the balcony to grow, so that its ventilation will be better. Second, of course, you need to give it plenty of sunlight. Spring, autumn and winter all need light, and the relatively suitable growing temperature is around 20-28°C.

Among these, in winter, if it is below 5°C, you need to bring it indoors to grow, otherwise it will get frostbitten. In summer, it can be placed indoors in a spot with bright light, and given appropriate shade. When the summer temperature rises above 30°C, it will enter dormancy. At this time, there is no need to pay attention to it, just let it rest, and during this period also control water and fertilizer. Wait until autumn, then replenish water and apply fertilizer, and in this way it can recover quickly. During the recovery period, there is no need to worry that its leaves will dry up, because its leaves have a relatively large water content, so there is absolutely no need to worry.

Then for the fertilizing part, it is recommended that flower lovers choose a fertilizer high in potassium and high in nitrogen. With high potassium, its fruit will be plump, and with high nitrogen, its branches will grow relatively fast (for high nitrogen, choose Huaduoduo No. 10).

Finally, for controlling the watering of the hanging basket string of pearls, just look at the moisture level of its potting soil. Touch it with your hand, and if it is half dry, water it in time. The watering method can use the soaking pot method, that is, put the flower pot into a container, then pour water into the container, about until the water level reaches half of the flower pot. Keep soaking for about half an hour, and after half an hour take the flower pot out, then put it in the bathroom to dry until it no longer drips, and then hang it up. But be careful not to let it accumulate water, otherwise it will easily rot.
