Got these new babies a week ago, just potted them today in their adorable new pots! I am new to both of these plants (arrowhead and string of turtles) so any tips appreciated! :)

String of plants need lots of water but not very often. It’s better to water it less often than over water. Make sure the soils is not wet/damp when you water, I can usually tell by its weight!!! LOTS of light lots of water with each watering and they should grow really well

The arrowhead was pretty easy in my experience but I got rid of it because it got thrips. Both are super easy to propagate. I’ve had both plants do really well in a south window and a west window!!

Thank you for your tips! They are both next to a southwest facing window, so that’s perfect.

Cute pots. Hope they have drainage holes

They do have drainage wholes thankfully!

turtles love humidity! that's how you get nice, plump turtles. they're semi-succulent, so a little mist goes a long way, but ensure that they don't get too dry.

Ugh, I love string of turtles!! I can’t find them locally, and when I order them online, they always arrive DOA💔
