Description

String of Turtles is a unique trailing houseplant known for its tiny round leaves that look like little turtle shells. Each leaf has green, silver, and patterned markings, giving the plant a detailed collector look while still staying compact enough for shelves, desks, hanging baskets, and small indoor spaces.

This plant is a great choice for anyone who wants something different from the usual trailing pothos or philodendron. Its delicate vines slowly trail over the edge of the pot, adding texture and movement without taking over the room.

Care Instructions:

Light: Bright, indirect light is best. Avoid harsh direct afternoon sun, which can fade or burn the leaves.

Water: Let the soil dry mostly between waterings. String of Turtles does not like staying wet, so avoid overwatering.

Soil: Use a well-draining houseplant mix. A chunky mix with added perlite or orchid bark works well.

Humidity: Average household humidity is usually fine, but it appreciates a little extra humidity in dry rooms.

Fertilizer: Feed lightly during spring and summer with a diluted houseplant fertilizer.

Pet Safety:

String of Turtles, also known as Peperomia prostrata or Trailing Peperomia, is listed by the ASPCA as non-toxic to cats and dogs. Still, pets should not be encouraged to chew on it, since eating any plant material can cause stomach upset.

About Our Live Plants

Healthy Live Plants


We ship real, living plants selected for quality, health, and strong growth potential. Every plant is unique, so size, shape, color, leaf count, and variegation may vary naturally from the photos.

Indoor Plant Care Included


Each order includes simple care guidance to help your plant adjust after delivery. Most houseplants prefer bright indirect light, proper drainage, and watering only when the soil begins to dry.

Packed for Safe Shipping


Plants are carefully packed for live plant shipping. Minor shipping stress, loose soil, or small cosmetic blemishes can happen, but we package every order with the goal of delivering a healthy plant.

Shop With Confidence


Blackwater Plants offers live houseplants, rare plants, tropical plants, beginner-friendly plants, and collector varieties with a focus on healthy arrivals, honest photos, and helpful plant support.

U.S. Shipping & Live Plant Delivery

U.S. LIVE PLANT SHIPPING

Blackwater Plants currently ships live plants within the United States only. Each order is packed by hand from our U.S. location with care for safe plant delivery and healthy arrival. We do not offer international shipping at this time.

LIVE PLANT SUPPORT


Because plants are living products, minor shipping stress, loose soil, or small cosmetic blemishes may happen in transit. If your plant arrives damaged or unhealthy, send clear photos shortly after delivery so we can review the issue and help make it right.

ORDER TRACKING & DELIVERY


Tracking information is sent once your order is packed and ready to ship. Please follow your tracking closely and bring live plants indoors promptly after delivery, especially during hot or cold weather.

SELECTED & PACKED WITH CARE


Each live plant is checked before shipping and packed carefully for U.S. plant delivery. We prioritize healthy roots, clean foliage, safe packaging, and a smooth arrival experience for houseplant lovers and collectors.
