String of Pearls could easily be called "string of peas" as the leaves look just like peas. The pot of String of Pearls looks like a pot of peas bubbling over and down their pot. Thin, seemingly fragile stems, that can grow very long, support round, pea green, pea-shaped "leaves" close together. Each pearl has a tiny, barely there point on the end, and a translucent "window" stripe designed to let light into the interior for more photosynthesis. The Variegated one has lovely warm cream colored striping and slashes that really liven up the party! The plant is a fairly fast grower, so it's not long before your plant is spilling over and trailing. In the wilds of Africa, String of Pearls is a groundcover, growing super long with stems piling over each other. That must be a sight to see! Also, the blooms that appear pretty often are reminiscent of half closed dandelion poufs with a surprising scent of cloves.
