Othonna capensis 'Ruby Necklace' Highlights: Othonna capensis 'Ruby Necklace' grows to form bean shaped leaves on a thin, trailing stem that can reach several feet in length and flushes to a beautiful magenta color when stressed. Can be grown as a houseplant or an outdoor ornamental. This beautiful trailing succulent grows tufts of white hairs in its crevices. Do not be concerned when you see this, it is not a pest infestation. Easily propagated from stem cuttings. Produces yellow, daisy-shaped flowers that typically bloom in the summer. Hardy to Zone 10 (30° F). 'Ruby Necklace' will not survive a hard frost. However, succulents can easily be grown indoors under grow lights or in a sunny window if there is a risk of temperatures dropping below 30° F. 'Ruby Necklace' Care: As with all succulents, it is best to follow a "soak and dry" schedule where you water your plants deeply (until water runs out the bottom drain holes), and then allow your soil to dry completely before water
