Question
This plant hangs long strings out of the pot on the plant all the way down it looks like tiny green beans .  what is it??????

Answer
Hi Sandra
You have a 'String of Pearls' plant.  I have not seen one in years!   This is a type of a succulent therefore likes to dry out a bit between waterings.  They need a good, bright, indirect light.
Be careful if you have pets or kids, this plant can be toxic.  If by chance a child or dog/cat does chew on one of the 'pearls', call the poison center or vet for further info and tell them you have a  'Senecio rowleyanus'
