The string of turtles is looking great! The progress doesn’t seem dramatic for the last 6 months but it’s starting to trail nicely and formed a dense laser of leaves. I propagated them a year ago- progress pics #houseplantsofmastodon #stringofturtles

My string of turtles is thriving! Small chunky round leaves that look like turtle shells, trailing out of a terracotta potScindapsus pictus trebie, big curled leaves with light green markings. I love this chilled out plantI can not remember what this plant is. Has large heart shape leaves with iridescent light green veinsHoya splash, with long slender thick leaves with light markings like splashed paint. That’s has grown so many new leaves

I'm attempting to root string of turtles (peperomia prostrata). The leaves seem to be still alive after a few few weeks in the pot so I think it's working.
