String of hearts

-

Add a string of hearts (Ceropegia

linearis subsp. woodii) to your home for instant and easy style. This enchanting and fast-growing house plant is very trendy and popular due to its versatilit­y and easy-to-care-for nature. Plump and marbled heart-shaped leaves hang from delicate stems and can be draped, wrapped, or trained up mini trellises to dress shelves, windows and coffee tables.

This trailing plant doesn’t require much space to grow in, making it ideal for narrow spots and small containers. Being semi-succulent it will also forgive a forgotten watering or two.
