How not to kill your Ceropegia woodii 'String of Hearts'

We've created a personalised Grow Guide for your Ceropegia woodii 'String of Hearts'. Just follow this easy guide and you & your new leafy mate will be loving life together!

Light: Indirect

I'm pretty flexible, actually. Generally I'd rather be in a bright spot, with plenty of indirect light. But if all you've got is a moderately shady corner, that's no biggie I'll happily adapt with perhaps a bit less watering. Just keep me out of any harsh, direct sun and we'll get on just fine.

Humidity: Normal

Atmospherics? I'm really not that bothered, actually. Just your everyday household humidity is fine. No extra attention required, thanks, so don't be comin' at me with that spritzer!

Watering: Regular

I'm a Thirsty Kirsty! I could drink most other plants under the table and still throw shapes on the dancefloor. Don't let me dry out or there'll be trouble, but remember, the art of drinking is slow & steady. Too much, too quick isn't good for any of us. Keep my soil moist but not soggy.

Top tips from our Agony Plant.

The top tip for caring for a Ceropegia woodii (String of Hearts) is to treat it like a succulent by allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings and providing bright, indirect light. As a semi-succulent, it is much more susceptible to root rot from overwatering than damage from being too dry.
