Maybe wait for it to grow then once it does prop it and add to the pot?! Lol I’m not an expert but that’s what I’m slowly doing with a string of hearts. I’m not actually sure if the pearls prop the same.

I have learned from others that you want the top of the plant to get a lot of bright light and that you can loosely round strands of pearls on top of the pot to help form a mound of pearls before the strands go back to hanging down again.

Ok thank you.

East direct sun in the morning bright indirect light in the afternoon. Warm temperature and low humidity, fertilize regularly during the growing season, keep the soil slightly moist in spring and summer. Prune and propagate to maintain a fuller plant.

Use half strength fertilizer
