How To Propagate String Of Pearls?

Choose a healthy string of pearls plant with long, trailing stems

Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears

Cut a healthy stem section with several pearls and at least one node

Remove a few pearls from the lower part of the cutting to expose nodes

Let the cut end dry and callus for 1 to 2 days

Prepare a pot with well-draining succulent or cactus soil

Lay the cutting on top of the soil with nodes touching the surface

Lightly pin the stem to the soil if needed

Keep the soil slightly moist, not wet

Place the pot in bright, indirect light

Wait for roots to form before watering more heavily

Mist lightly only if the soil dries out completely

Separate and plant rooted sections once new growth appears

Avoid overwatering during the rooting period
