Description: Ceropegia woodii (tuber) aka String of Hearts, Rosary vine, etc is native to S. Rhodesia and S. Africa. Blooming Time: Summer-Fall. Flowers are candle-shape. They are 1 inch tall and bulbous at the base. Culture: Ceropegia woodii need full sun to partial shade with some protection from the hot midday sun. The temperature should never go below 60° F in winter. In the greenhouse, we use a soil mix consisting of 1 part peat moss to 1 part loam to 2 parts sand or perlite. DO NOT over water and be sure to let the soil become dry in between waterings. The container needs to have drainage holes to prevent root from rotting if it is too wet. Fertilize monthly through spring and summer with balanced fertilizer - dyring winter water sparinglyand do not fertilize. Similar to the Hoya, the Ceropegia woodii does well in a crowded pot, so only repot when necessary around spring. New plants can be difficult to start as they are inclined to rot easily and quickly.10
