The String of Turtles (Peperomia prostrata) is a Brazilian native succulent, beloved for its delicate, turtle shell-patterned leaves that trail along thin vines. Its intricate multi-colored foliage starts vibrant and gradually becomes muted, creating a beautiful contrast as the plant matures. This slow-growing plant takes 3 to 5 years to reach full maturity, making it an excellent long-term addition to your indoor garden.
Perfect for Low Light & Easy Care:
The String of Turtles thrives in typical household conditions, preferring low to moderate light and minimal watering. Its compact size and slow growth rate make it ideal for small spaces like shelves, windowsills, or hanging planters. Each leaf looks like the shell of a miniature turtle, lending the plant its charming common name.
