String of Tears Care Guide
The String of Tears does best in partial shade or indirect bright light rather than in the full direct sunlight.
As a houseplant, it does well in an east-facing or west-facing sunny window.
If you’re growing the plant outdoors, you should bring it in before the cold months of winter.
Alternately, if you’re growing it as a groundcover, take cuttings to keep indoor plants as houseplants and return them to the outdoors when winter is over.
All plants of this type are adapted to live in fairly arid environments.
They are able to store water in their stems and leaves for long periods of time.
Water as you would any trailing succulent or cacti sedum.
Wait until the soil is almost entirely dry and then water very deeply.
Allow water to run through the soil and out of the drainage hole of the container.
Fertilize these succulents once a year during the summer.
Use a weak solution of a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.

They does not looks to be as good as good as in image. THey have been sowed in garden soil and not in Succulent soil (downside) and the health is also does not seem to be great. May be due to weather. but since this is really difficult to find in nursries, can be given a shot.
