Senecio Citriformis (4 inch)

Senecio Citriformis is also known as Curio Citriformis 'String Of Tears' because of its teardrop-shaped leaves. However, there are no strings involved. The plant's main features are mostly green to dark green. The most characteristic feature of the leaves is that the ends are lemon yellow. Clusters of small, pale yellow flowers appear in late summer to winter.

Senecio Citriformis is a plant that is best grown outdoors rather than indoors, it loves the sun and thrives outdoors in full light, and full to partial sun is the best choice for its growth. Let it get at least two hours of full sunlight every day if possible. Then, when winter comes, you can bring it indoors by the window or balcony to keep the light in.

Watering methods are very important for maintaining the health of citrus geraniums. However, it shouldn't sit on the water. Watering every two weeks may be a good option. Each "teardrop" of Senecio Citriformis can store a certain amount of moisture. So you need to be careful not to let the soil get too dry.

A bunch of tears plants prefers well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. You can make your organic soil by adding bark, coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. It can grow better in this soil. If you find preparing to challenge, you can buy directly in our store. I believe this will solve a lot of your troubles.

We pack all shipments by hand. 

We have many years of experience shipping live succulents and cactus plants. We pay close attention to packing and have developed an expert shipping method. All succulents are packed and protected with polypropylene cotton (this is a stuffing used for dolls). We find this is the most effective material for protecting live plants while in transit. It is important to us that you are able to Keep going and Keep growing without any stress about the quality of the product or packaging.

Shipping Speed

In general, it takes 3 to 10 days for plants to arrive after you place your order. All orders will be shipped out 48 hours after you place them. We ship the orders on work days(from Monday to Saturday) and all year round. In normal conditions, it will take 3-10 days for you to receive the package. Estimated shipping times are offered as needed.

HOLIDAYS: During weeks in which a holiday occurs - Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, etc. - shipping may be delayed until the following week.

EXTREME WEATHER NOTICE: The Next Gardener reserves the right to hold shipments during storms or periods of extreme heat or cold. This is to ensure your plant does not suffer while it is in transit.

Winter shipping

We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.

Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Hawaii, Alaska, and Other US Territories

Unfortunately, shipping is not available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. The transit time is too long, and the plants would be dead on arrival.

Due to numerous factors beyond our control, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And, we can no longer guarantee orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico that get delayed by more than 4 in-transit days. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. Thank you for your understanding.

Sorry. No International Shipping for now!!!
