The String of Turtles is a delicate trailing houseplant adored for its small, round leaves patterned with intricate, turtle shell-like markings in shades of green and silver. Its cascading growth habit makes it a charming choice for hanging baskets, shelves, or terrariums.
Light Requirement:
Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its detailed leaf markings. Can adapt to medium light but will lose vibrancy if kept too dim. Avoid direct sun, which may scorch the foliage.
Watering Requirement:
Water moderately, allowing the top layer of soil to dry between waterings. Peperomia prostrata prefers slightly moist but well-draining soil. Be careful not to overwater, as its fine roots are prone to rot.
Mature Height:
Typically remains compact, with trailing vines that can reach 12–18 inches long over time. Its petite size and slow growth make it a perfect choice for small spaces and decorative displays.
