Photographs are representative of the species and not always of the specific plant shipped. Normal variations in size, pruning and leaf structure may occur.

Sun: Indirect

Place your String of Turtles plant in bright, indirect sunlight. While it enjoys ample light, avoid exposing it to direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can scorch its delicate leaves.

Light: Bright

This plant thrives in bright, indirect light, making it ideal for placement near a window where it can receive plenty of natural light without being exposed to direct sun rays.

Water: When half dry

Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings, as overwatering can lead to root rot. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, ensuring that excess water drains freely from the pot.

Humidity: Low

String of Turtles plants prefer moderate to high humidity levels. To increase humidity, mist the leaves regularly or place a humidity tray filled with water near the plant. However, ensure proper airflow to prevent fungal issues.

Pet Friendly: Yes

The String of Turtles plant is considered pet-friendly and safe for homes with pets. However, it's essential to keep an eye on curious pets to prevent them from nibbling on the leaves, as ingestion may cause mild gastrointestinal upset.

Pro Tip

Consider placing your String of Turtles plant on a shallow tray filled with pebbles and water to create a humidity tray. As the water evaporates, it increases the humidity around the plant, mimicking its natural tropical habitat. This extra humidity can help keep the plant's leaves lush and vibrant, promoting optimal growth and reducing the risk of dryness-related issues.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!

PRO TIPS

To prevent both under-watering and overwatering, use a well-draining potting mix and allow excess water to escape. Always check the soil moisture before adding more water to keep your plants thriving.
