The string of bananas plant (Senecio radicans) gives the look of an exotic, high-maintenance plant but requires minimal care."String of bananas" plants tolerate a range of light conditions, from bright outdoor sun to medium indoor light, like near a south or west window.

Care: "String of bananas" plants tolerate a range of light conditions, from bright outdoor sun to medium indoor light, like near a south or west window.. If you plant seems droopy, leggy, pale and you see stems reaching for brighter lighting conditions, the plant needs more light. Try moving it closer to a sunny window. If the "bananas" look yellow or brown at the tips they might have sunburn from too much direct light. Move your plant a few feet each couple of days so it has a chance to adjust gradually to its new conditions.
