Introducing the fascinating silver dollar vine, also known as Xerosicyos danguyi. The silver dollar vine has several other common names such as the penny plant, silver dollar plant, or Dollar vine.  

The name "silver dollar" refers to the shape and color of the leaves on this succulent vine, which originates from the dry regions of Madagascar. This unique silver dollar plant is sure to catch your attention with its distinctive appearance and interesting growth habits.  

Xerosicyos danguyi has cylindrical stems and thick, flattened, round, silvery-green leaves. Xerosicyos means 'dry cucumber', and this plant belongs to the cucumber family. These are vining succulent plants that climb using delicate tendrils to stick onto the wall or other surfaces. Despite its climbing abilities, the Silver Dollar Vine only turns into a loose shrub over time if it does not have something to climb and produces a small caudex at the base. The leaves are up to 1.6 inches long and 1.4 inches wide, giving the plant a striking and eye-catching look. This vine can be grown in a hanging basket or trained to climb a trellis or wall, adding a touch of greenery and uniqueness to any space.  

The flowers of the Xerosicyos danguyi are small and inconspicuous, but what makes them unique is their intriguing fragrance. When the silver dollar vine blooms in the Spring and Summer, it releases a sweet and delicate scent that can fill the air around it.  

The Silver Dollar flowers themselves are pale yellow or greenish white in color, adding a subtle beauty to the overall appearance of the plant. While the Silver Dollar Vine is primarily known for its striking silver dollar-shaped leaves, its flowers provide an extra touch of charm and allure. If you have the opportunity to witness the blooms, it's definitely a treat for the senses.  

Additionally, the Silver Dollar Vine is non-toxic to cats and dogs, so you can enjoy its beauty without worrying about your furry friends.  It's sure to be a conversation starter in any indoor garden. 

Watering Needs 

Like most succulents, the Silver Dollar Vine has adapted to survive in arid conditions, which means it has low watering needs. It's important to let the soil dry out between waterings to avoid overwatering. So, make sure the top inch or so of the soil is dry before giving it a good drink.  

When it's time to water, give your Xerosicyos danguyi silver dollar vine a thorough soaking, allowing the water to reach the roots. But remember, moderation is key! Avoid leaving your silver dollar vine plant sitting in standing water, as this can lead to root rot. During the growing season, which is typically spring and summer, watering should be done again every two to three weeks once the soil has dried out. 

One of the most intriguing aspects of the Silver Dollar Vine is its ability to store water in its leaves. This adaptation allows it to survive in dry conditions, making it a perfect choice for those who tend to forget to water their succulent plants. The leaves can shrink or shrivel when the dollar plant is low on water, but don't fret! They'll plump back up when watered, showing off their unique charm once again. 

Keep in mind that the watering frequency may vary depending on factors like the temperature, humidity, and the type of potting mix used. So, it's always a good idea to monitor the soil moisture and adjust your watering schedule accordingly.

Light Requirements  

When grown indoors, the Silver Dollar Vine thrives in bright, indirect light. It enjoys being near a window where it can receive plenty of bright, filtered sunlight throughout the day. However, it's important to protect it from direct sunlight, especially during the hottest parts of the day, as this can scorch its leaves. 

If you're growing your silver dollar vine outdoors, it is important to choose a location that receives partial shade. This dollar plant thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and can be damaged by intense heat or direct sunlight. If you notice that your Silver Dollar Vine's leaves are turning yellow or brown, it might be an indication that it's receiving too much direct sunlight.  

Meanwhile, if the leaves start stretching or becoming pale, it could mean that they're not getting enough light. In that case, you can consider moving it to a brighter spot or supplementing it with artificial grow lights.  

Remember, finding the right balance is key! Provide a spot with bright, indirect light, and observe how your Xerosicyos danguyi responds. If it's thriving and maintaining its vibrant green color, then you've found the perfect spot. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Xerosicyos danguyi favors very airy, sandy soil that drains well. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and, most likely, root rot.

Instead, make or buy a well-draining potting mix, or ideally, use our specialized succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your Silver dollar succulent to thrive. 

When it comes to fertilizer, the silver dollar vine doesn't require excessive feeding. During the active growing season, which is typically spring, you can fertilize it with a balanced (5-10-5), water-soluble NPK fertilizer diluted to half strength. Apply the fertilizer once a year and follow the instructions.  

It's important to remember not to over-fertilize, as succulents like the silver dollar vine are adapted to survive in nutrient-poor environments. Too much fertilizer can actually harm your Xerosicyos danguyi and lead to issues like burned roots or excessive growth. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

When growing indoors, the Xerosicyos danguyi silver dollar vine prefers a warm and cozy environment. It thrives in average room temperatures ranging from 65°F to 75°F. It's important to keep your silver dollar vine away from drafts or sudden temperature fluctuations, as it prefers stable conditions. 

When growing outdoors, the Xerosicyos danguyi is best suited for hardiness zones 10-11, where temperatures rarely fall below 30°F. If you live in a colder climate, you can still grow the silver dollar vine outdoors during the summer months, but it's important to bring it indoors before the temperatures start to dip. 

Remember, the silver dollar vine is not frost-tolerant, so it's crucial to protect it from freezing temperatures. If you're growing it outdoors, make sure to bring it inside or provide proper insulation during the colder months. 

Xerosicyos danguyi Propagation

To propagate Xerosicyos danguyi silver dollar vine, select a healthy stem, prepare a 4-6 inch long cutting, remove lower leaves, allow it to callus, plant in a well-draining soil mix, and provide proper care. Place the cutting in a warm, bright location, and avoid direct sunlight and water sparingly. Overwatering can lead to rotting. When Xerosicyos danguyi is grown from seed, a caudex will form. With patience and Xerosicyos danguyi care, the cutting should develop roots and grow into a new plant, expanding your collection. 

The Bottom Line 

To sum it up, the Xerosicyos danguyi, or the Silver Dollar Vine, is a unique and fascinating succulent plant. It thrives in warm indoor temperatures and is best suited for hardiness zones 10-11 outdoors. Propagating this plant through stem cuttings can be a rewarding way to expand your collection. Just remember to provide it with well-drained soil and bright but indirect light, and avoid overwatering. With its distinctive silver dollar-shaped leaves and ability to store water, the Xerosicyos danguyi adds a touch of exotic beauty to any space. Whether you're a cactus enthusiast or simply looking for an interesting houseplant, the Xerosicyos danguyi Silver Dollar Vine is definitely worth considering.

Great edger for home use
This WORX 12 Amp Electric Lawn Edger did exactly what I needed it to do. It was easy to use, had plenty of power for cleaning up the edges around my driveway and sidewalk, and gave the yard a much cleaner, finished look. I like that it is corded because I do not have to worry about batteries dying, and it has enough power for regular homeowner use. The first pass took a little extra time since the edges needed cleaned up, but once I got going, it worked great. Overall, this is a solid edger/trencher for the price, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone wanting cleaner lawn edges without dealing with gas.

Takes The Edge Off!
This is a decent product. If you are going to do a lot of edging, or want to do deep trenching to run conduit, etc. this is NOT the product you want. It is electric, so you are tethered to an outlet, and of course, the farther you go on extension cords, the less of the 12 amp juice you get. It also trenches to 1 1/2", which is OK, but not enough to dump conduit, etc. That said, this is a very good edger. Out of the box, it is minimal assembly. You connect the three pieces of the shaft, removing some edge tape from it, and inserting two metal bolts and plastic knobs, similar to most lawn mowers these days. Then you install the plastic handle with another bolt. That's it. For use, you have a lever which you pull up for edging and lower for trenching to adjust the group clearance. You also choose 1", 1/4", or 1 1/2" depth. Then you plug it in. There is a white line on top of the blade cover so you know where the blade is. You just pull the trigger to run the blade, or release the trigger to stop the blade. Be careful not to lose sight of your electric cord so you don't hit it! I edged along my driveway, about 50' on each side, as well as my front of my lawn, so another 85' along the lawn and the apron (both sides). That's over 350'. It cut through the grass and dirt easily. It struggled a couple of times, on some tough mounds of grass, but like any other tool, you don't force it when that happens, just back up and do that area again slowly. If you come too close to blacktop, Belgian block, stone, etc. you will see sparks so you will know. Just keep in mind, this is an edger. You will be left with the severed grass/sod to remove. In my case I was loooong overdue for a edging, so I spent a long time scraping the sod off the pavement with a shovel. I expect with more frequent ending, and now working with a cleaner edge, this will be less of an issue. Either way, that is not on the product, but the state of the lawn. The edger has 2 read wheels and one smaller front wheel so , although this is not like a big, gas-powered curb jumping unit, you have the option of attacking a curb edge from either the blade side or other side of the edger, so you can get real close to a Belgian block curb. I also did the edge where my grass meets my mulched flower bed, but that was more of a trimming than a edge removal. Overall, the Work edger did as good, or better, a job than my string trimmer, and I didn't have to stop every few minutes to rewrap string. Plus it trenched enough to give me a definitive edge, whereas the string edger just cuts into the grass, not a real trench.

Easy to use for a clean looking cut!
I do wish there was a cordless version but I'm so glad I bought this. It took some time to edge everything the first time because I had to cut the lines but it's been a breeze ever since. I just walk the perimeter of the yard and driveway and it does it's job with ease. The front wheel has three settings which determines how far down the blade cuts and the blade has two settings for edging or trenching. The handle is stationary but it can be lifted up or down. There's a guideline on top of the blade guard that helps identify where the blade is going to make the cut. TIP: Lean it back on the back wheels before pulling the trigger and slowly bring it down because it will jump if the blade isn't lined up and touches the concrete. It doesn't roll well in the grass but it's very smooth when rolled on the concrete. It's definitely worth having to give a clean and finished look. It's well built and isn't too heavy but definitely has some weight to it. It's only loud when the blade hits the concrete otherwise it sounds like a drone. The only complaint I have is that I have to watch the cord closely other than that it's the perfect tool to give a clean look to the yard.

Great product for the $$$$
This edger is awesome. Easy to put together. Intuitive. I put it together inside of 10 minutes. Shifted the edger "guide" down, and went to work. This corded electric model is WAYYY cheaper than the battery powered (or gas powered) models, and is absolutely up to the task. Lightweight and maneuverable. Quiet. Easy to store. The motor got a little "bound" when I tried to edge too fast, but the manual had clearly warned me on this - to back up, let the blade get back up to speed, and then edge again. The lawn edges are now straight, well-defined, and immaculate.
