Meet the Ceropegia woodii (String of Hearts)

Ceropegia woodii, commonly known as String of Hearts, is a trailing succulent vine native to Natal, South Africa. It is admired for its long, wiry stems that can exceed 60 cm and delicate, heart-shaped leaves in dark green with silvery patterns. In its natural habitat, it grows creeping over rocks and shrubs, and under the right conditions, it produces small, tubular purple flowers along its stems. Its charming trailing habit makes it perfect for shelves, hanging baskets, or macramé displays.
