- Commonly sold as Othonna capensis, I do believe the most up-to-date scientific name for this succulent is Crassothonna capensis. And it's fondly known as string of pickles. It's #330 in "365 Days of Plants".
In this video I'll discuss where it is originally native to, where I'm growing it in my home, and basics like light, watering and fertilizing.
You can check out more of these videos here and on my IGTV @homesteadbrooklyn.

I have those and I can vouch they are fairly easy to grow and care. Good plants for beginners if they want a trailing plant that's forgiving. They will give off a nice dark purple colour (hence the name) if exposed to bright sunlight
My most benignly neglected plant... I only water it when I notice that it's very shrivelled. It's turned completely purple and is trailing all over my other succulents.
Love this plant❤ thanks for sharing summer!
If given direct sunlight the leaves turn a deep burgundy-red. Hence, ‘Ruby Necklace ‘.
LOVE OF PLANTS 🌻 I see! I thought that Emerald Necklace would be more fitting XD
I always thought it was Ruby bc of the purple stems? But eh the sun stress makes more sense, though most succulents get sun stressed.
I love this plant, they give me the cutest yellow daisy-liked flowers 🤩
I love the trailing/stringy type plants.
Oh wow, I freaking love this plant, and if I ever find one I am for sure buying it, I love that the stems are purple in color, and that it just looks so cool and different. Thanks so much Summer for this video, see you tomorrow.
if you are on Facebook go to Woos Gardens page I just bought one from there for $10 and its beautiful
I got one of these not too long ago at a Sunday market here in Melbourne... Got it growing in an old silver teapot!!! Such an easy plant to grow!!!!!!!
Another great plant you introduced to me/us🧚🏾♀️🧚🏽🧚♂️
Yep .. I have this and it grows like crazy!! It turns red in the cooler temperature. Mine is blooming in November!!
Great information as always... Thanks!
I have this one as well, what a fun plant to propigate. It hangs long in my southern window. :)
Soooo lush....🌿
That's a cool one!
Looks like tiny green beans lol!
Hope all are well, hale and hearty!
Cheers!
Cool porch plant down south!
It was amazing watching this video. I recently brought Fiddle leaf fig, calathea zebrina, pachira aquatica, Boston fern, philodendron congo, staghorn fern, philodendron congo, and a few snake plants. I have a North facing twenty feet wide balcony with bright light and no direct sunlight and I have placed my plants five feet away from the balcony inside my living room. I have noticed yellowing of leaves of pachira aquatica and Boston fern. In fact my Fiddle leaf fig seems to be happy and has two new leaves. After watching your video I am worried as I have a North facing balcony which has light from east and west but it is only three feet wide, so I would be glad to know something from you
Love that
Mine attracts spider mites like no other! But I do love its look so I deal with it every time I get them.
How do you deal with them?
Love you darling and god bless you ❤️
Hi there, please help me, i do have this plant just bought from nursery near me, after 1 day it become shrink. I check the root it looks fine. No water since arrival, however the soil is wet from nursery, ive propagated it and its look the same, looks dry, and shrink
Can you prop like other succulents?agate these from the leaves
I don’t understand. I thought my plant was growing a new ruby but it looks like a growth now. Lol. What does that mean?
I got some of these through a trade and had no idea what I had🤣 Thanks!
What’s the difference between this to Senecio Purple Flush?
What is the difference of ruby necklace and string of bananas?
String of bananas/dolphins are all green and they have a sort of fin looking thing and looks more like a dolphin rather than pickles
Can I mix this plant with other succulents
Yes I add it to the edges of many of my succulent pots for a bit of extra colour
I think I’ve got this, but it wasn’t called string of pickles
Hello Summer. Great video, as usual. I sent you a message on Instagram. Don't know if you saw it.
Wtf did u do to your hair?
