This is my string of pearls that I had revived twice and I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions with potting? I don’t think the roots are long enough for the pot it’s in and I’m afraid the soil will get to moist and give it root rot again but I can’t put it in a smaller pot or else it gets to crowded.

Since I’ve never grown these I read the learn more section of the plant info page and it suggests that you could plant them in a shallow pot.

Yes! Sometimes I’ll cut off the top half of the plastic pot to create a shallow pot.

### Anya kommentierte am 2023-06-29

But of course it would be important to elevate it so the cache pot isn’t blocking all of the light

Also watch out! They have very thin and fragile roots
