Introducing the stunning string of fishhooks, scientifically known as Senecio radicans glauca, which is a trailing succulent variety of the Senecio radicans.

The fish hook plant, also known as the blue pickle vine, is a hybrid trailing succulent that belongs to the Asteraceae family and is native to South Africa. The name "string of fish hook" comes from its distinctive appearance, as its leaves resemble tiny fishhooks. 


This fishhook Senecio plant features long, slender stems that cascade down, making it an excellent choice for hanging baskets or trailing down from shelves.

The stems are covered in small, cylindrical leaves that grow in pairs along the stems.

When the fishhooks plant has the proper growing conditions it grows very quickly and can get up to 32 feet tall. Whether you grow Fishhooks Senecio indoors or out, just make sure you give it room to trail!

The flowers of a string of fishhooks bloom from late summer to winter with daisy-like flowers. These delicate blooms are typically a creamy white or pale-yellow color and appear sporadically. While the Senecio flowers are not the main attraction of this hanging plant, they add a lovely touch when they do appear.

Most sites mix up the string of fishhook and string of bananas plants, but the glauca fishhook differs from the string of bananas (Senecio radicans) by having smaller, cylindrical leaves resembling fishhooks and a bluish-green color, whereas the string of bananas has elongated, banana-shaped leaves and a bright green color. Furthermore, the shape of 'Hooks' is longer and flatter than that of the string of bananas, which is rounded with a plump shape.

The Senecio radicans glauca fish hooks can be propagated from leaf or stem cuttings. This fish hook plant is not frost-hardy and winter-dormant. Avoid placing it directly under ACs, as it may cause leaves to droop. The fish hook plant looks best in hanging baskets as well as pots hung on walls. These can be grown in the driveway too. 

Watering Needs 

Succulents, like the Senecio Fish Hook plant, are excellent at withstanding drought or drought-tolerant fish hook plants. That's because the foliage of these succulent plants has the capacity to store water. Their leaves will explode if the soil is excessively wet or if you give them too much water.

Therefore, you typically only need to let the roots completely dry before watering them again. Watering them before they are completely dry can cause the roots to soak up water, which is bad because they are particularly prone to rotting. When your string of fishhook plants and roots get mushy, you'll recognize that something is wrong. 

If you notice the leaves trimming or wrinkling, this indicates that your Senecio plant needs to be watered. You ought to water these plants once every two weeks or so during the height of their growing season. 

You can dramatically cut back on that in the winter and only do it once a month. It's important to check the moisture level of the soil by sticking your finger about an inch deep into the soil. If it feels dry, it's time to water. If it still feels moist, wait a few more days before watering. 

Light Requirements

The glauca string of fishhooks prefers bright, indirect sunlight. If you are growing his hanging plant indoors it thrives when placed near a window with filtered sunlight or in a well-lit area of your home. Remember to rotate the fish hooks plant occasionally to ensure all sides receive adequate light for even growth.

When outdoors, ensure light shade and full sun indoors. Avoid exposing your fishhook plant to direct sunlight, as it can cause the leaves to burn.

If you notice the leaves stretching or becoming pale, it might indicate that the Senecio plant is not receiving enough light, so you can try moving it to a brighter location. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs

The fishhook plant prefers well-draining soil. A good option is a succulent potting mix, which provides the right balance of moisture retention and drainage. You can also create your own potting mix by combining regular potting soil with perlite or pumice to improve drainage.

Planet Desert specializes in succulents and has specialized succulent potting soilGo to soil cactus mix blend 1 gal 4 qt cacti succulent dirt compost growing media that includes an organic substrate with mycorrhizae to help with the growth of a healthy root system to help your string of fishhook Senecios thrive.

When it comes to fertilizing, these fishhook plants don't require heavy feeding. A balanced (5-10-5) natural NPK fertilizer can be applied once a year during the growing season of spring. It's important not to over-fertilize, as this can lead to salt buildup in the soil and damage your fishhook succulent.

If the leaves start turning yellow or the Senecio succulent appears unhealthy, it may be a sign of over-fertilization, so it's best to reduce or stop fertilizing until the Senecio plant recovers.

Hardiness Zones & More 

When growing indoors, they prefer temperatures between 60-80°F during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night. They become mushy when exposed to chilly temperatures for too long. So, throughout the winter, you should bring the pots indoors. If the air in your home is particularly dry, you can increase humidity by placing a tray of water near the plants or using a humidifier.

For outdoor cultivation, your fishhook plant is generally suitable for USDA hardiness zones 10-12. Like many other succulents, they can withstand heat well, but they can only withstand cold or moisture for a brief period of time.

This fishhook Senecio can adapt to both dry and moderately humid environments. However, they may benefit from slightly higher humidity levels, especially during the drier winter months. 

Remember, these are general guidelines, and it's always best to observe your specific plant's response to its environment and make adjustments accordingly. 

Final Thoughts

Overall, the String of Fishhooks (Senecio radicans glauca) is a fantastic trailing succulent that's perfect for hanging baskets or cascading down shelves. Its unique fishhook-shaped leaves give it a distinctive appearance. This plant loves bright, indirect light, so place it near a window where it can soak up some rays. When it comes to watering, it's best to let the soil dry out between waterings to prevent overwatering. This low-maintenance plant is a great addition to any succulent collection and adds a touch of whimsy to your space.

Give this succulent a try if you're looking for a beautiful plant Senecio radicans glauca - a string of fishhooks to care for!

The Best Fluoride-Free Toothpaste I've Tried
Flavor Name: 1. Sensitive Mint, Size: 5.25 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I've been using Davids Hydroxi Fluoride-Free Nano Hydroxyapatite Toothpaste for several weeks, and it has completely exceeded my expectations. The first thing I noticed was how clean and smooth my teeth felt after brushing. Unlike many natural toothpastes, it leaves a genuinely fresh feeling without being overly harsh. The natural peppermint flavor is refreshing and pleasant without the intense burn that some mint toothpastes have. What really impressed me is the nano-hydroxyapatite formula, which is designed to support enamel remineralization and reduce sensitivity. My teeth have become noticeably less sensitive to cold drinks, and they feel stronger overall. Nano-hydroxyapatite is gaining attention as a fluoride alternative because it can help replenish minerals in enamel and reduce sensitivity. I also appreciate that it's: Fluoride-free SLS-free Made in the USA Vegan Uses high-quality ingredients Comes in a recyclable metal tube The whitening is subtle but effective. My teeth look brighter without any increased sensitivity, and the toothpaste is gentle enough for daily use. The inclusion of xylitol and hydroxyapatite makes it feel like a premium oral care product rather than just another natural toothpaste. While it's more expensive than conventional toothpaste, the quality and ingredients justify the price. Even dental professionals reviewing hydroxyapatite toothpastes have noted benefits for remineralization, sensitivity relief, and plaque reduction. Overall: 5/5 stars. If you're looking for a fluoride-free toothpaste that supports enamel health, helps with sensitivity, and leaves your mouth feeling exceptionally clean, Davids Hydroxi is absolutely worth trying. Highly recommended!

Mild mint taste
Flavor Name: 1. Sensitive Mint, Size: 4 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I wanted to go fluoride free with my toothpaste so I decided to give this a try. I like that the flavor isn’t overly strong and it hasn’t caused any irritation at all. It doesn’t foam up as bad as my old toothpaste did. It is important to me that it’s all natural and fluoride free. My first check up at the dentist after using it went really well so it cleans your teeth really well. I would recommend it

Only toothpaste in my household
Flavor Name: 1. Sensitive Mint, Size: 5.25 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Love this toothpaste, no fluoride, great taste, fresh breath. Great value for the price as the tube is quite large. Only downfall if that it doesn't foam well which you will find with any toothpaste not full of nasty chemicals. Only thing my family uses.
