Characteristics

The Othonna capensis, also known as Ruby Necklace or String of Rubies, is a captivating succulent with cascading stems and unique foliage. The leaves are the main attraction. They are plump and fleshy, resembling little green jellybeans when young. As they mature, they lengthen to about an inch long, with a slight blue-grey tinge and a rounded, "chubby finger" shape. This plant isn't a bush but a creeper with slender stems that grow outwards, reaching up to 2 feet in length. Ideal for hanging baskets!

How to Care for String of Rubies

  • Light: Bright indirect light
  • Water Preferences: Thrives in a warm, dry environment. Allow the soil to dry almost completely before watering again.
  • Special Care/Notes: Very susceptible to overwatering. Avoid roots staying submerged in water in a container with no drainage holes. Place in a brightly lit room, but out of direct sunlight. 

To ensure plants are delivered with the most care, we ship plants Monday-Wednesday. Plants purchased after Wednesday or over the weekend will be shipped on the following Monday. Check out our shipping policies for more information. Thank you!

"Amelia was a great help today assisting us in finding some plants for our yard. I would highly recommend her and Bath Garden Center and Nursery for any of your landscaping needs."

- Julie Sharrah, July 2025

"What a fun and whimsical nursery. There is something for everyone. It feels like every turn you find another treasure. Pricing is boutique-like but plenty of items on the under $15 side. We went in today for greeting cards and found the perfect cards for my grandma. I've purchased many garden supplies and plants here as well. They always have great quality and variety. The owner is amazing, generous, and community focused."
