Pictured is the Chinese Lantern Plant, a much-loved plant for in home. Most beautiful anyway is this variegated version with white and pink in the leaves as well.
The official name of this plant is Ceropegia Woodii Variegata. The leaves are heart-shaped, making it a very attractive plant. The English name: String of Hearts is therefore very apt.
The stems of this plant can grow very long, so it looks great on a high cabinet or shelf. It also looks great in a hanging pot.
The lantern plant requires little care, but too much water can cause root rot. So water moderately and make sure the soil is well-drained. Ideally, this plant should be placed in a pot with drainage so that excess water can drain away.
