STRING OF HEARTS
Plant Doctor String of Hearts Plant Care Guide:
Ceropegia Linearis or Ceropegia Woodii aka "String of Hearts" needs lots of bright light and will grow quickly in high-light conditions. They love bright light but can get sunburnt if sitting in harsh, direct sunlight for long periods of time.
Allow String of Hearts to dry out in-between waterings. They store water in their foliage and don't need very much water. Plant in a well draining pot to reduce the risk of standing water and overwatering. Water every other week in the warmer months and once every 3-4 weeks in the colder months. Water by flooding the pot with ample water and allowing it to drain out. Make sure to plant with proper succulent/cactus soil mix for optimal drainage. Be careful not to overwater! They will die quickly if overwatered.
Their roots are shallow and like to stay fairly compact. They do not need to be repotted frequently.
