thanks so much. I learned some good things.. I was gifted a string of pearls from my sister in law because she thought it would do better in the conditions at my house, but it became very unhappy! I've now rerooted the entire plant (!!) in water, because it was about to die. The pearls are so happy now and I'm hoping they are happy with the transition back to soil. Thanks again!
I searched EVERYYYWHERE for shallow hanging terracotta pots with no luck. I finally discovered terracotta "bulb pans" which are shorter pots and I plan to drill holes in the side and add some string myself. I am going to pot up my SOT, VSOH and VSOP in them and I'm so excited! Had to watch this video before I did anything to give me some courage haha. Any advice you want to give or anything you'd change (since this was posted several months ago)?
Melissa - I'm not sure you actually realize how good your videos are now. The lighting is perfect, the autofocus works perfectly, the plant closeups are OMG seriously the best of any planty channel. We have a large TV so your plants are like 4 feet across (lol), and the detail and high definition are just a joy to watch! Also, congrats on 50k! Also good choice with the heavier shirt to accommodate the mic 🙂
Yay!! That makes me so happy!! Thank you!! I wished I got a camera sooner. I’m really enjoying using it and I’m loving the new software too :) I’m still messing around with settings and I feel I look a little washed out but I’m happy with the progress I’m making! It was a lot to learn how to use new stuff but I’m excited to do more videos now. 🥰 50k is so crazy to me! thank you!! 🙏🏼
Wow, what a plant mat! The iridescence gives it a lot of pizazz. From a style and artistic standpoint It certainly compares very favorably to the piece of grungy old scrap plywood that I use!? I’m kind of attached to the plywood, however, and I’ve certainly done a lot of plant care tasks on it. I’m also very impressed that just a single pearl detached during the repotting. Great touch on your part. Enjoyed this video as always. Thanks.
Thank you for sharing an excellent and entertaining video. your channel always gives the best..and all your videos I like..and I always look forward to your channel videos..I hope you continue to succeed and produce very good and interesting videos..this video is my best ..#plant#tips#great#beautiful#greenflower👌👍😍💚💚💚
String of hearts is my favorite! Mine started really small and they grow so well and fast! I water mine a bit more often than the pearls. The pearls can be finicky but as long as they good light they should grow well for you! :)
This is great, thanks for sharing. Would you be able to do a video on how you propagate the SOP in moss? I just got a dehydrated SOP from a friend as a rescue and would love to see how your process is like. 😊
I no longer use pots with “waists” - those with more of an urn shape. When it’s time to repot, you can’t easily get the plant and soil out of the pot to move it because of the fatter bottom portion and the narrower neck/waist.
Omg! Found you on my search for how to report string of pearls! Your video was so informative and relaxing to watch. Ill be following you for sure! Thank you
I just got a variegated SOP so I wanted to rewatch this and I’m glad I did! I read that the SOP wants part sun and I was pretty sure you give yours high light! Fingers crossed big time that mine gets as long and lovely as yours 😊
Thank you! I'll have to show it again soon, It has Exploded!! I honestly am shocked lol. I made a reel on it not too long ago but it has grown so much. Mine gets a pretty good amount of light!
I just got my first string of pearls and I am getting ready to repot it since it is in a hideous looking cactus pot so this is really helping me It's a glazed pot in and out and I'm noticing that you're not using any kind of glaze pot Can it be glazed on the outside but left terracotta on the inside so I can get it to match my decor
Right now Melissa my favorite string of plants is the string of turtles. My next acquisition will be the string of shields and I’ve heard of string of daggers but never seen one.
I got a string of dolphins at a big box store and it was so over watered most of it died within a few days. Try to rehab the 2 little strings that are left, I won’t be getting a “string of” at a big box store again.
Oh no, that stinks! Sometimes the pots get so full of water and they don’t drain it makes me sad :( I hope what’s left can make a good comeback for you! 🤞🏼🥰
I really like the way that planter looks but concerned about soil level being so high and touching the knots that are inside the pot. They’ll wick the water from the soil and eventually rot and the planter will crash to the floor. When you watered it I could see the water drip out of the holes near the rim. 🪴❤️

I just love that pot! Perfect for the plant💚
I’m holding off watering my string of plants after the initial watering. Thanks to you I learned that.
You’re welcome! 🥰
Love that pot! ❤
Thank you! target 2022 season! I wished they brought it back
I LOVE that pot!!!!!!!

They are gorg!!!!!
It looks beautiful in that pot...I was afraid to repot my string of pearls but after watching this great video I am sure I can do it now...Thank you

Thank you!! Lol I was surprised to only see one fall off too 😂 it’s a cute mat! I make a mess anyway so anything to help 😆
where did you buy that cute soil scooper? Seems very handy for potting
Beautiful pot and string of pearls. My favorite is variegated string Of hearts and my string of pearls.

Thank you!! 🙏🏼🥰
My favorite is Ruby Necklace. My SOP is finally showing growth after almost 6mos!
Looks so so nice! Your new potting mat looks nice on camera!
Thank you!! 🥰🥰 I need to break out my bigger one too because I’m always making a mess haha 😂
This was very helpful! Thank you! 💛
Love your string of pearls! I just ordered a ruby necklace, that would look pretty in that pot.
oh yes! That would look beautiful!
Did u find the pot I can’t find it
Wow it's beautiful ❤️ keep sharing
Thank you so much!! :)
The SOP and that pot will look beautiful! I just subscribed!
Thanks for subbing! :)
I just got a string of hearts and love it. Now I need the pearls too!!!
String of hearts is my favorite! Mine started really small and they grow so well and fast! I water mine a bit more often than the pearls. The pearls can be finicky but as long as they good light they should grow well for you! :)
My favourite plant

I have string of tears and it’s beautiful. I found 4” variegated string of pearls for $7.49 at my local Nursery here in CA❤🥰
Where in California? I recently purchased a SOH and paid 14.99 for a 6 inch pot!
@@GiGiM-1114 you got a great deal for string of heart for $14.99 😍
@@Sabrinasee02omggg just paid 17.99$ for a four inch pot 😭 so expensive i don't think i'll go back to that nursery-
Wow! That turned out great!
Thank you!! Happy with how it looks! Can’t wait for it to fill out more :)
My favorite are string of hearts and string of pearls are 2nd. I didn’t know about the types and I am now looking for them.
I no longer use pots with “waists” - those with more of an urn shape. When it’s time to repot, you can’t easily get the plant and soil out of the pot to move it because of the fatter bottom portion and the narrower neck/waist.
That's the question I had. What to do when the plant outgrows the terracotta pot. It can't be squeezed or cut like plastic
Omg! Found you on my search for how to report string of pearls! Your video was so informative and relaxing to watch. Ill be following you for sure!
Thank you
Thank you!

P.S. would love to see an update of YOUR variegated SOP from those props you showed at the end ❤
Thank you! I'll have to show it again soon, It has Exploded!! I honestly am shocked lol. I made a reel on it not too long ago but it has grown so much. Mine gets a pretty good amount of light!
What a cute video!! 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you! 🤗
Saw a string of fishing hooks today. :)
Melissa I need to repot mine, BUT it's in a smal terracotta , I think I will deliberately break it. My string of pearls,is about 4ft long .

I just got string of pearls it’s a new plant for me.
Right now Melissa my favorite string of plants is the string of turtles. My next acquisition will be the string of shields and I’ve heard of string of daggers but never seen one.
Oh nice!! I haven’t seen those either!! Turtles are definitely so cute!! :)
There isn’t the shield but string of arrows
I found string of dolphins and string of bananas at my local Tractor Supply for less than $3. Put 2 in each pot and they are growing like wildfire!!!
super cute! Love it.
Thank you so much!! 🥰
I just recently bought some cute little 2in SOP and SOH and now begins the awkward wait to decide when to move her up
Please share where u got the new pot from it’s so cute!
It's old from target last spring :(
@@plantsbymelissa thank u ☺️
I love my string of hearts and string of Dolphins 🐬 ❤️ I love all of the strings though 💚🤣
Yes!! I need more now haha. I think the next time I see a dolphins I’m going to get it! :)
Wow awesome 💚
Thank you! :)
Senecio rowleyanus was first introduced in the 70"s by Sweetheart Botanical Gardens.
I really want a string of dolphins! ♥️
Me too! The more I see them I want them haha gonna have to get one next time I see them! :)
I just got a string of bananas from Home Depot & I put it in my West facing window so hoping that’s enough light for it.
West is good light!! I feel as long as it’s in the window so it gets enough sun it should grow well for you! :)
I got a string of dolphins at a big box store and it was so over watered most of it died within a few days. Try to rehab the 2 little strings that are left, I won’t be getting a “string of” at a big box store again.
Oh no, that stinks! Sometimes the pots get so full of water and they don’t drain it makes me sad :( I hope what’s left can make a good comeback for you! 🤞🏼🥰
Were i can buy the sting of pearl
Have you ever had your pearls start getting more elongated? I'm not sure why but mine started changing.
🍀🍃🌿💞
🥰🥰🥰🙋💚🌿👸
I have killed 3 already. They don't like me😪😪
oh no :(
Wow Bạn rất xinh đẹp và làm việc tốt ạ. Tôi rất thích bạn. Bạn đẹp quá ạ 🍀

I should've watched this before I repotted mine. Good lord. I think I killed that poor thing. 🥲🥲
