Despite its name, string of bananas, also known scientifically as Curio radicans, is not a fruit but instead a species of succulent with banana-shaped leaves. Native to South-Africa, string of bananas have become an increasingly popular indoor houseplant.
String of bananas is a pretty low-maintenance succulent, and like many of the typical succulent care requirements, string of bananas prefer full indirect sunlight and infrequent watering. These houseplants are incredibly versatile, easy to take care of, and work perfectly in hanging pots to show off their trailing vines.
