String Of Bananas is groovy hanging succulent. Mine was getting leggy at the top so I pruned it so I could plant the cuttings back in at the top. Propagating a String Of Bananas plant is easy & fast to do – you’ll see!

My String Of Hearts has been growing like crazy in the warm desert temps & was badly in need of a haircut. I pruned about 3′ of trails off of it 5 or 6 weeks ago. Growing in the same hanging pot is a String Of Bananas & a String of Pearls.
I noticed the trails of the SOBs had started to branch & fill out but the tops were getting a little bare. I decided it was time to get on with the propagating of my String Of Bananas plant & do some filling in.
I pruned off a couple of trails, both about 6″ long, to propagate & then plant back in the pot. Planting the cuttings in straight succulent & cactus mix 1st in order to root them is what I wanted to do rather than plant them directly in the hanging pot.
I have to climb on a stool to water the hanging pot (which grows on my patio) so I could better control the moisture. I didn’t want the cuttings to go too dry or stay constantly wet.
I transplanted the cuttings into the hanging pot about 3 weeks later. They’re barely hanging over the edge of the pot but it’s winter now & I won’t see much if any growth until the temps warm back up in late February or so.

my string of bananas are super heavy and were looking good but after my grandpa overwatered then the tops /roots are dying can i just cut them and plant where it’s still green ?
You're so great, Nell! Your teaching is a blessing to my plants. And you make me laugh. Thank you!
Can string of bananas or fish hooks be propagated in water…. Till it roots up? .. And then can it be transferred to potting mix
How often do you water them while they propagate?
I like these plants, adding to my wish, thank you for your enthusiasm as always, I learn so much from you darlin’

Hi

I love how you have three types of vines in one pot!
I bought a succulent this summer that had no label on it…it is rather tall, stands straight up & the leaves look like the string of banana leaves but thicker & bigger. If anyone can help me I'd appreciate it so much. I've searched & searched to no avale
Such a FANTASTIC video Nell 😀 String of Bananas is on my future wish list 😀 thanks so much for sharing and sending you an abundance of love and happiness and plant power from Ireland XXXX <3
Your fish hooks look alot like my purple ice plant. I actually thought it was string of fireworks too but turned out to be the ice plant. Anywho thanks for the video!
♥♥ love your plants. So beautiful
When mine get long, I lap them back over top and it helps fill up. When I clip, the ends double.
