Introducing the stunning string of fishhooks, scientifically known as Senecio radicans glauca, which is a trailing succulent variety of the Senecio radicans.

The fish hook plant, also known as the blue pickle vine, is a hybrid trailing succulent that belongs to the Asteraceae family and is native to South Africa. The name "string of fish hook" comes from its distinctive appearance, as its leaves resemble tiny fishhooks. 


This fishhook Senecio plant features long, slender stems that cascade down, making it an excellent choice for hanging baskets or trailing down from shelves.

The stems are covered in small, cylindrical leaves that grow in pairs along the stems.

When the fishhooks plant has the proper growing conditions it grows very quickly and can get up to 32 feet tall. Whether you grow Fishhooks Senecio indoors or out, just make sure you give it room to trail!

The flowers of a string of fishhooks bloom from late summer to winter with daisy-like flowers. These delicate blooms are typically a creamy white or pale-yellow color and appear sporadically. While the Senecio flowers are not the main attraction of this hanging plant, they add a lovely touch when they do appear.

Most sites mix up the string of fishhook and string of bananas plants, but the glauca fishhook differs from the string of bananas (Senecio radicans) by having smaller, cylindrical leaves resembling fishhooks and a bluish-green color, whereas the string of bananas has elongated, banana-shaped leaves and a bright green color. Furthermore, the shape of 'Hooks' is longer and flatter than that of the string of bananas, which is rounded with a plump shape.

The Senecio radicans glauca fish hooks can be propagated from leaf or stem cuttings. This fish hook plant is not frost-hardy and winter-dormant. Avoid placing it directly under ACs, as it may cause leaves to droop. The fish hook plant looks best in hanging baskets as well as pots hung on walls. These can be grown in the driveway too. 

Watering Needs 

Succulents, like the Senecio Fish Hook plant, are excellent at withstanding drought or drought-tolerant fish hook plants. That's because the foliage of these succulent plants has the capacity to store water. Their leaves will explode if the soil is excessively wet or if you give them too much water.

Therefore, you typically only need to let the roots completely dry before watering them again. Watering them before they are completely dry can cause the roots to soak up water, which is bad because they are particularly prone to rotting. When your string of fishhook plants and roots get mushy, you'll recognize that something is wrong. 

If you notice the leaves trimming or wrinkling, this indicates that your Senecio plant needs to be watered. You ought to water these plants once every two weeks or so during the height of their growing season. 

You can dramatically cut back on that in the winter and only do it once a month. It's important to check the moisture level of the soil by sticking your finger about an inch deep into the soil. If it feels dry, it's time to water. If it still feels moist, wait a few more days before watering. 

Light Requirements

The glauca string of fishhooks prefers bright, indirect sunlight. If you are growing his hanging plant indoors it thrives when placed near a window with filtered sunlight or in a well-lit area of your home. Remember to rotate the fish hooks plant occasionally to ensure all sides receive adequate light for even growth.

When outdoors, ensure light shade and full sun indoors. Avoid exposing your fishhook plant to direct sunlight, as it can cause the leaves to burn.

If you notice the leaves stretching or becoming pale, it might indicate that the Senecio plant is not receiving enough light, so you can try moving it to a brighter location. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs

The fishhook plant prefers well-draining soil. A good option is a succulent potting mix, which provides the right balance of moisture retention and drainage. You can also create your own potting mix by combining regular potting soil with perlite or pumice to improve drainage.

Planet Desert specializes in succulents and has specialized succulent potting soilGo to soil cactus mix blend 1 gal 4 qt cacti succulent dirt compost growing media that includes an organic substrate with mycorrhizae to help with the growth of a healthy root system to help your string of fishhook Senecios thrive.

When it comes to fertilizing, these fishhook plants don't require heavy feeding. A balanced (5-10-5) natural NPK fertilizer can be applied once a year during the growing season of spring. It's important not to over-fertilize, as this can lead to salt buildup in the soil and damage your fishhook succulent.

If the leaves start turning yellow or the Senecio succulent appears unhealthy, it may be a sign of over-fertilization, so it's best to reduce or stop fertilizing until the Senecio plant recovers.

Hardiness Zones & More 

When growing indoors, they prefer temperatures between 60-80°F during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night. They become mushy when exposed to chilly temperatures for too long. So, throughout the winter, you should bring the pots indoors. If the air in your home is particularly dry, you can increase humidity by placing a tray of water near the plants or using a humidifier.

For outdoor cultivation, your fishhook plant is generally suitable for USDA hardiness zones 10-12. Like many other succulents, they can withstand heat well, but they can only withstand cold or moisture for a brief period of time.

This fishhook Senecio can adapt to both dry and moderately humid environments. However, they may benefit from slightly higher humidity levels, especially during the drier winter months. 

Remember, these are general guidelines, and it's always best to observe your specific plant's response to its environment and make adjustments accordingly. 

Final Thoughts

Overall, the String of Fishhooks (Senecio radicans glauca) is a fantastic trailing succulent that's perfect for hanging baskets or cascading down shelves. Its unique fishhook-shaped leaves give it a distinctive appearance. This plant loves bright, indirect light, so place it near a window where it can soak up some rays. When it comes to watering, it's best to let the soil dry out between waterings to prevent overwatering. This low-maintenance plant is a great addition to any succulent collection and adds a touch of whimsy to your space.

Give this succulent a try if you're looking for a beautiful plant Senecio radicans glauca - a string of fishhooks to care for!

Great Value, Cost-Effective, Installs in Minutes
Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas, Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas
This air filter set ended up being a great value and a convenient all-in-one solution for routine maintenance. What stood out right away is how closely these match OEM quality in terms of fit and overall design. Both the engine and cabin filters dropped into place without any issues, and installation was quick and straightforward. It’s the kind of swap that can be done in a short amount of time without needing any special tools, which is always a plus. I also really like that this kit includes both filters together. Since it’s generally best to replace them at the same time, having everything bundled eliminates the need to search for separate parts, compare options, or deal with multiple orders and shipping times. It makes the whole process much more efficient. In terms of performance, I did notice a slight improvement in fuel economy during my regular commute after installation. It’s not a dramatic change, but it’s a nice added benefit and a good indication that the filters are doing their job effectively. Overall build quality seems solid, and everything feels comparable to what you’d expect from a factory replacement. For the price, this is an excellent value and a practical choice for keeping up with regular vehicle maintenance. I’ve been very satisfied with this set so far and would definitely consider purchasing it again when it’s time for the next replacement.

Professional-Grade Filtration for a Factory-Fresh Drive
Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas
If you have a newer 1.5L Civic or CR-V, you know that keeping your engine breathing clean air is the best way to maintain fuel efficiency and long-term reliability. I picked up this Engine and Cabin Air Filter Set for a routine maintenance refresh, and the fit and material quality are indistinguishable from the factory components. It’s a high-quality, "all-in-one" solution that saves a trip to the dealership and keeps your cabin air crisp. Why this filter set is a standout for 1.5L Honda owners: Precise "Lock-Down" Fit (17220-64A-A00): The engine air filter is a perfect drop-in for the 2022–2026 Civic and 2023–2026 CR-V 1.5L gas models. The rubber gasket provides a tight, airtight seal in the airbox, ensuring that no dust or grit bypasses the filter. High-Efficiency H13 Cabin Filtration: The cabin filter (80291-T5R-A01) is noticeably more substantial than some budget options. It does an excellent job of scrubbing out pollen, road dust, and exhaust odors, which is essential if you spend a lot of time on the road or deal with high-humidity environments. Rugged, Deep-Pleat Construction: You can feel the quality in the filter media. The engine filter has consistent, deep pleats that maximize surface area for better airflow, while the cabin filter feels sturdy enough to handle high-velocity AC settings without vibrating or whistling. Direct OEM-Spec Replacement: These are true 1:1 replacements for the factory part numbers. No trimming or "making it fit"—they slide into their respective housings exactly as they should, providing a professional-level service in under 15 minutes. Outstanding Multi-Pack Value: Buying this set is a fraction of the cost of a dealership service. It’s an inexpensive bit of insurance for your engine’s intake system and your own respiratory comfort. ⚠️ Critical Fitment Note: This set is specifically engineered for the 1.5L Gas engines. If you are driving a 2.0L or a Hybrid model, the airbox dimensions are different, so double-check your engine specs before ordering to ensure a 100% compatible fit. Installation Tip: When swapping the cabin filter, look for the "Air Flow" arrow on the side of the filter frame. Ensure it is pointing downward (toward the floor) to match the factory airflow direction. For the engine filter, give the inside of the airbox a quick wipe with a clean microfiber cloth before dropping the new one in to ensure a perfectly clean start.

2 for 1. Great deal over buying separately.
Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas, Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas
At first, I thought this was an average priced item. What I didn't realize is that my year old 2025 CR-V has TWO filters. The normal Panel Air Filter found under the hood and a Cabin Air Filter secreted away behind the glove compartment. The Pane Air Filter alone generally runs from $19.99 to $35.99. Cabin Air Filter runs a little lower in average price but the 2 combined would be nearly double the cost of this kit ($26.99 at time of order). FIT: • These filters fit snugly. Just like the OEM versions. Recommendation: Verify that you have the correct year/model CR-V. These will not fit the Hybrid. VALUE • Great price for both filters. CONCLUSION I don't think I can beat the price of these 2 filters together in a set. I live in an area where Spring tree pollen is often as much as 10X what is generally consider high. Changing filters regularly is a must. I certainly recommend this set for quality and value.

Every bit as good as OEM.
Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas, Size: 2023-26 CRV 1.5L Gas
These fit my wife's 2026 CRV perfectly. Replacement: No issues whatsoever with installing the cabin or engine air filter and all-told it took all of 5 minutes to replace both filters. Getting to the engine air filter took longer than replacing it. Quality / durability: These filters are every bit as durable and high quality as the OEM filters I replaced them with. When I took each filter out I inspected it to make sure that they were comparable and was pleasantly surprised that there was virtually no difference between the two in construction or the appearance of the membrane. Airflow: The membranes looked nearly identical when held to the light so airflow should be just as good with these new replacement filters as it was with the OEM. I can't believe how good of a value these filters are.
