SKU 4_SUCC_SENECIO_STRING.OF.BANANAS
  • Botanical Name: Senecio radicans
  • Common Names: String of Bananas, Banana Vine, Creeping Berry
  • Description: Senecio radicans is a fast-growing succulent known for its cascading vines of banana-shaped leaves. Native to South Africa, this drought-tolerant plant adds a playful and lush vibe to hanging baskets or containers. It produces small, white, cinnamon-scented flowers in optimal conditions and is loved for its easy-care nature.
  • Watering Needs: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water sparingly, especially during the winter, as it is highly drought-tolerant. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
  • Preferred Humidity: Thrives in low humidity typical of indoor environments. Avoid overly humid conditions, which may cause rot.
  • Sun Exposure: Prefers bright, indirect light or filtered sunlight. Can tolerate some direct morning sun, but harsh afternoon sunlight may scorch its leaves.
  • Toxicity: Toxic to cats and dogs if ingested, causing drooling, vomiting, and digestive discomfort.
  • Mature Size: Vines can grow 2-3 feet long, making it an excellent trailing plant for hanging baskets or shelves.
  • Plant Type: Evergreen Trailing Succulent
  • Hardiness Zone: USDA Zones 9-12 outdoors, but it is commonly grown indoors in cooler climates.
