Ep. 30 - String of Hearts

Ceropegia woodii Plant Profile

String of Hearts, Tangle of Hearts, Rosary Vine… whatever you call Ceropegia woodii, you’re probably already in love with this beautiful trailing succulent vine.

But this simple plant has one critical care detail you must observe before you can sit back and watch her vines trail down to the floor. And Stephen does not hate this plant! Why did Matthew think that?! How rude. Plus a bonus Taxonomy Time segment from Matthew.

Mentioned in this episode:

  • the cactus and succulent soil mix we use

  • why we repot these almost immediately upon bringing them home

For those who are interested, here is the taxonomy article Matthew mentioned from In Defense of Plants.
