Ruby Necklace
Othonna capensis
- Colorful, trailing succulent that turns from green to magenta then plum with increased sun exposure
- Slender, purple stems can grow 2' long and are covered with pudgy, bean-like leaves
- Grows white tufts of fuzz along its stem—don't worry, it's not mealybug!
- Flourishes in south-facing windows with deep drenchings when the soil is dry and the leaves just start to pucker
Hardy to 30°F (Zone 10)
