String of Hearts

It is easy to see how String of Hearts get their name after you see their long trailing vines covered in beautifully variegated heart-shaped leaves. Keep these plants in bright, indirect light, else you might see large empty gaps between leaves. Put this succulent like plant in a hanging basket and watch as it cascades over the sides.

Plant Type

Cactus & Succulent
Cactus and succulents are plants known for their thickened, fleshy parts that function as water storage. These hardy and low-maintenance plants need little to no attention.

Plant Feature

Low-Maintenance
These are plants that you do not have to water too often and are excellent in various lighting conditions. This makes them perfect for any room in your house.

Light Care

Medium-High Light
Plants that require medium to high light will grow best in sunny spots where they can receive filtered or direct sunlight. They make the perfect plants for any well-lit room in your house.

Water Care

Low - Medium Light
These plants perform well under low to medium light conditions. Place them in a room with a minimal light source or far from sunny windows, and they’re good to go.

Fertilizer Care

Low Fertilizer
These plants would appreciate a regular application of fertilizers during the growing season. They aren’t heavy feeders, and feeding at low rates is enough for these low-fertilizer plants to grow well.
