String of Watermelons Senecio herreanus is a succulent plant of the genus Senecio in the family Asteraceae. It's called String of Watermelons because its striped shape is somewhat similar to a watermelon.

The stems of String of Watermelons grow prostrate, the leaves are fleshy and teardrop-shaped, green, with a stripe on the epidermis, and the stripes will turn purple when there is a large temperature difference and sufficient light, and even the whole leaf will look a little purple-red. In addition, String of Watermelons has a thicker and somewhat transparent stripe on the leaf surface.

 

Care Tips

Light: The most suitable way for it to sunbathe is to receive sunlight in an environment that has been dispersed by sunlight. It can not accept too much direct sunlight to itself, if it receives direct sunlight, its leaf color will become yellow from bright green. If the situation is serious, it may even lead to the withering of the whole plant. It should not be exposed to sunlight either.

Water: It does not require much water, and its roots tend to rot if the soil is waterlogged for a long time. In spring and autumn, it can be watered more often, which makes it easy to grow in groups and look very good. When the temperature is very high in summer, you should reduce the amount and frequency of watering, but you can spray some mist or sprinkle some water into the air. Of course, you can't water too much in winter, for one thing, it grows very slowly and doesn't need much, and you have to pay attention to prevent freezing.

Soil: In order to meet its requirements for loose soil, you can choose to mix perlite, peat, kiryu zuna / kiryu sand, etc. The amount of perlite added should be slightly less game. In addition, it is best not to use a substrate like vermiculite, because it can easily harm the root part of this plant.

Potting: It is recommended to use ceramic pots, ceramic pots have a certain degree of permeability, clay pots lose water too fast, plastic pots retain water too strong, and poor permeability. Also they do best in hanging baskets.

Temperature: Like a warm growth environment, it is adaptable, relatively hardy growth of the appropriate temperature is between  55 - 77°F (13 - 25 ℃), winter overwintering temperature is generally not less than 41°F (5 ℃).

Humidity: Prefer a humid environment 50% to 60% humidity, can give sufficient moisture, but the summer stifling heat should pay attention to ventilation. It grows well in average household humidity levels when grown indoors.

    Care Instructions

    Please visit our Succulent Care info page for more details.

    To ensure the health of succulents, it is important to plant them in porous, well-draining soil. Succulents require little watering, but don't like to sit in wet soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage.

    Make sure to leave drought periods between waterings to prevent the plant from water-logging.

      Great sports/fitness watch
      Color: Black/Yellow
      I will start my review with an admission: I hate digital watches. I think 7-segment numbers look ugly, and I prefer the ability to see the 'distance' between times visually that you get with an analog face. But I needed the timer and lap counter for my job, and I have always wanted to do interval training to improve my speed and endurance while cycling. This watch had everything I needed and more. I was aware that Timex was a respected brand, and the T5E231 was the only watch in my price range with the ability to count 199 laps. I have to say, though, that after a week of use, I actually love this watch. Not only does it meet my needs functionally, but it actually brings me pleasure to wear it and operate it. The yellow trim around the inside of the bezel clearly identifies it as a sport watch, yet it seems to fit in well in formal settings. The interface is incredibly user-friendly and satisfying to operate. I never thought I would refer to a watch's "interface", but this watch actually has one. Pressing most of the buttons results in actual text being displayed on the screen telling you what the button did, or what will happen if you hold that button down just a little longer. In most modes there are even little labels that appear on the screen by the buttons telling you what they do in that mode. Figuring out how to use almost all of the functions only required five minutes of random experimentation. The only thing I had to consult the manual about was how to switch the chronograph into lap counter mode. I just wish there instructions explaining how to fold the manual back into a size that fits inside the watch stand. There are so many little touches that make it clear the designers at Timex really take pride in their work. Here are my favorites: -When turning night mode on, the Indiglo lingers for another few seconds after releasing the button. But when turning it off, the light extinguishes immediately! It should, since if you are turning night mode off, it's probably daytime and you don't need the Indiglo anymore. -Being able to scroll numbers backwards and forwards while setting times. On other watches it is so frustrating to 'miss' the number you want and have to press the button 60 more times. -Little icons appear on the home screen letting you know if the timer, chronograph, or alarm is running in the background. Most watches only have an icon for the alarm. -The speaker plays a different sound for the alarm and the timer, so you know which one is going off without looking at the screen. Also the Indiglo light flashes. -The Indiglo system is clearly a masterwork of engineering. It looks evenly lit and is very easy to read, yet it doesn't illuminate anything other than the display (unlike the backlight on a phone, for example). This must save a lot of battery power, since lighting up other objects around the watch is a waste of electricity. Besides, you have your phone for that! -In timer mode, you can see what time the timer was originally set for on another line below the countdown. -The AM and PM appear in the same place on the display; there is just one little segment that lights up to turn the P into an A. -Many of the buttons that perform an irreversible or potentially unwanted function (such as resetting the chrono or clearing workout data) require being held down for several seconds so you don't trigger them accidentally. -The watch tells you how much memory is free for storing workouts. There is only one problematic thing about this watch (and it may actually be a problematic thing about myself). In order to activate the FLIX system I am required to wrench my arm so hard I nearly dislocate it. It is painful, and takes way more effort than just pressing the Indiglo button. This doesn't bother me, because I didn't buy this watch with the intention to ever use FLIX, but it is somewhat frustrating that it is so hard to use. However, it is possible that my technique is flawed, and there is an easier movement that will activate it. But I don't really want to experiment; I like my arm in its current uninjured state. In all, I am very satisfied with my purchase. I love everything it does, and the only 'negative' probably says more about me than it does about the watch. Considering my abhorrence of digital watches, I am surprised that I like this one so much. I don't plan to wear it any other time than while at work or working out, but for those times it is not only tolerable, but actually enjoyable. I highly recommend this watch!

      Decent watch for the price and very easy to read
      Color: Black/Blue, Color: Black/Blue
      I would consider this equal to the Timex Easy Reader except without Indiglo and less expensive. It is a nice size with quoted average water resistance. It has a press-down back and mine has a gunmetal color sort of sand blasted finish case. I don't know if it's coated or the actual metal color. The strap which came with it is of the NATO type and of decent quality. In the pic it is wearing the rubber strap from my Vaer watch which is a quick release rubber one. NATO straps are fine if you don't mind the double thickness of strap between the watch back and your skin. The spring pins aren't the typical ones which have the raised parts which allow you to use a removal tool. They are quite difficult to remove but I did it using a box cutter and by applying pressure I was able to eventually work them out and put normal ones on. The strap width is 20mm. I have a bunch of other straps which I can use with this watch. The full face lume is quite bright but I don't know how long it lasts just yet. If in a couple of years it needs a new battery, don't use a kitchen knife to snap off the back, use the proper tool which you can find on Amazon and follow the online tutorials on how to get it back on. All in all it was a good purchase.

      Good watch
      Color: Silver/Green
      This actually a good watch for the price. It glows in the dark due to solar exposure during the day. The wrist band was a little long for my first.

      No complaints, attractive, good work horse of a timepiece.
      Color: Black/Green
      Works great. I gave the luminous face a couple hours under a table lamp. When I went for my nightly half hour walk it glowed green the entire trip. Did not dim out like other watches with luminous hands/digits. So I know it glows for more than half an hour. My 2nd watch from this manufacturer. The other is an infantry watch OD green. Had it for 4 years daily use and still runs great. Changed the batt once. Could not see it in the dark at all. So, this new purchase for nights. I recommend it.
