​​Ruby Necklace, whose scientific name is Othonna capensis, is a trailing and fast-growing succulent plant.

Ruby necklace has a unique characteristic that sets it apart from other trailing succulents. True to its name, its bean-shaped leaves turn a bright ruby red when the plant is under stress. 

The plant is narrow and attractive due to its brightly colored stems and beautiful flowers. Its stems are thin and red or purple. The stems usually grow up to about 2 inches then start trailing downwards. One interesting thing about Ruby Necklace is that its flowers can appear all year round, which gives it that eye-catching look all the time.

 

Care Tips

Light: Ruby Necklace does best in desert and arid areas, but they usually avoid direct contact with the hot sun. Many Othonna species do much better when exposed to direct and hot rays of the sun.

Water: Like most succulents, these plants do not like to be overwatered, especially if placed in more shaded and cooler areas. They prefer for their soil to be well draining and for the soil to go completely dry between waterings.

Soil: Requires well-draining, acidic soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.5. Commercially available cactus and succulent soil mixes can be used.

Potting: Can grow as a ground cover, in a dry border, container or scattered in with other succulents in a well-drained rock garden. But they do best in hanging baskets, and are also suited for green roofs. 

Temperature: It’s not a cold weather succulent and does best in warmer temperatures. It thrives between 50°F and 80°F. Never let your ruby necklace sit in temperatures below 50 °F (10 °C) for extended periods of time.

Humidity: When grown indoors, ruby necklace does well in typical household temperature and humidity levels. Avoid placing your plants next to cold or drafty windows during extreme winter temperatures.

    Care Instructions

    Please visit our Succulent Care info page for more details.

    To ensure the health of succulents, it is important to plant them in porous, well-draining soil. Succulents require little watering, but don't like to sit in wet soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply add pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage.

    Make sure to leave drought periods between waterings to prevent the plant from water-logging.

      Great puzzle, even better complimentary squeaky carrot
      Color: Red, Color: Red
      Our dog is a Jack Russell mix and needs near constant interaction. In the winter, it gets so cold that we can't always get him out for long enough periods of time to satisfy his poor bored little brain. I've tried so many puzzles. He gets frustrated and bored quickly, and ends up just barking at them. One game that he loves in winter though, is what we call "the blanket game" and it's when we hide one of his favorite toys in an old blanket, wrap it all up, and then let him loose to find the toy. He can play this game over and over, for over an hour if we have the energy. So, when I saw this ball, I knew I had to try it. He loves it. He begs me to let him have it at least once a day and it gives him a good 5-10 minutes of play. He'd play it more if I let him have that many treats, haha. But I had to say that, true to form, his REAL favorite part of the puzzle ball was the complimentary carrot toy that came with it. He is obsessed with the carrot. He carries it everywhere. It goes to bed with him. He never loses it, always knows exactly where Carrot is. He even knows the word "carrot" now, after only a week or so of having our dear, beloved Carrot. I can ask him, "go get Carrot," and he brings it right to me. It is the only toy he ever brings me now. The squeaker is long dead, he killed it within the first couple days, but he still chews it relentlessly, listening for the little air puff sounds it makes now. So anyway, the ball is great. Love it. But the carrot? Is an epic find. I included a picture so you can see how utterly filthy it is from how much he loves it (don't worry, it's going in the washer). Thank you for this random carrot. It might be the best thing to happen to our weird little family this winter.

      Basic Starter Puzzle, But Not Very Durab
      Color: Red
      This toy is more like a level 1 puzzle—it doesn’t take long at all for my 1-year-old, 5 lb Papillon to figure it out. The ball part is sturdy enough, but the cloth sections are very soft and not durable. I worry about him tearing into it and possibly swallowing threads, so I only let him play with it under close supervision. If you just need a simple puzzle to introduce your dog to enrichment toys, this could work. But if you’re looking for something that lasts longer or provides more of a challenge, this isn’t it. Pros: • Works as a very basic starter puzzle • Ball portion is fairly sturdy • Good for quick enrichment sessions Cons: • Cloth material is soft and easy to damage • Requires close supervision to prevent chewing or tearing • Not challenging for dogs beyond beginner level Overall, I’m giving it 3 stars. It does the job as an entry-level puzzle, but it’s not durable and doesn’t offer much mental stimulation. UPDATE: The company reached out after my review and provided good customer service, which I really appreciated.

      Surprisingly durable
      Color: Yellow, Color: Yellow
      *** UPDATE/EDIT: I bought this thing back in February 2024 and ten months later with nearly DAILY USE this bad boy is still going strong!! You can see in my video, filmed just now, that it's still in one piece and that despite the frequent play, she still LOVES it. It smells like rubber, which doesn't smell like roses to me... but all rubber toys are going to, and that's ok. I'm just so impressed with the durability. Really, really impressed. Between interest, durability and value, I say if you are looking for this kind of toy you should get it if your dog is an appropriate size. Ten months of daily, hard use of throwing, fetch, chewing, travel, overnights in the elements, you name it. There's no reason not to. It's the perfect chew toy IMHO. *** ORIGINAL REVIEW SEPTEMBER 2024: My Goldendoodle is great about destroying every chew toy I give her. She doesn't ruin shoes, she doesn't counter surf (ok she does, she just doesn't take anything) and she has learned to leave the scrunchies and socks where she finds them. Even the remote is safe. (She'll hide it, but it's not destroyed.) So the chew toys get completely mangled because they get her full attention. This toy? It has survived the worst of her chewing attention. Being a cardiac service dog, she goes everywhere with me, including trips, and this toy always gets packed. It's great to throw because it has a "handle" and chucks really well. She carries it easily, like a pacifier lol. And it somehow has survived. It's a bit of a challenge to get treats inside, so if your goal is to stuff it frequently, this might not be the right toy. But it's possible. As for durability, this has been in the top two or three for my girl. Worth the money. Keeps her entertained, which is important, lol...

      Durable toy, keeps them busy
      Color: Red
      our trainer said our dogs needed cognitive toys and lick toys to help them calm down. I had doubts about this toy. I was pleasantly surprised when it kept them entertained off and on throughout the day. One would take a break and the other would start batting it around and licking at it. I squished some soft treats into the stem section, crunch treats of various size into the top hole (a couple freeze dried chunks of chicken that I know wouldn't come out easily), and mashed some squishy sweet potato treats into the side holes of the top. While it did take a bit of time to prep with all the different types of treats, it really kept them entertained for a long time. They are 40 pounds and decent chewers and haven't bitten off any rubber bits. Very durable.
