Rejuvenating My String Of Pearls Plant

My String of Pearls plant, or Senecio rowleyanus, took a bit of a nosedive. Alright, truth be told, it’s a shadow of its former self. Fortunately it’s on the road to recovery and because it grows fairly fast. It should be looking all plump, sassy and filled out by next Spring. This video, & the blog post, tell you what happened and how I’m rejuvenating it.

The String Of Pearls was growing along happily as can be last year and I had to routinely prune its long trails up off the patio. You can see its glory days in the blog post. Then, late last Fall, my neighbor cut down another large pine tree which filtered out some of the strong afternoon sun that streamed into the garden.

Fast forward, we had a very dry and very warm Winter followed by a copy cat Spring. This, along with my “neglect by habit”, caused the String Of Pearls to head south. Dried pearls are nowhere near as purdy as those fresh green ones.

By next Spring, it should be lookin' good again!

You might not know the answer to this. But I do water changes on my fish tanks. Can I take that water and water my container plants? I've been dumping it under my orange tree.
