Introducing the variegated string of hearts, known as Ceropegia woodii variegata, which is a stunning trailing succulent variety of the Ceropegia genus that is extremely easy to grow indoors. 

The variegated string of hearts is known by various common names, including sweetheart vine, hearts entangled, the variegated string of hearts, the rosary vine, the chain of hearts plants, and a rosary plant.     


The variegated string of hearts is seriously one of the most unique and hardy vining succulents out there. 

The heart-shaped leaves with purple undersides are just gorgeous, and they grow on these tough, wire-like stems that trail so nicely. And get this - those vines can grow up to 12 feet long.

The hearts on a string are dark green with pink and silver variegation or creamy-white variegation, making them stand out even more.

This little variegated string of hearts plant also produces tiny bead-like tubers along its vine that give it the appearance of a rosary heart. This variegated version of the Ceropegia woodii is perfect for hanging baskets and brings an exotic touch to any space.

The variegated string of hearts flowers are spectacular tubular, small pink or purple that bloom from late winter to early spring.

If all of that wasn't enough to win you over, just picture how stunning those olive-green leaves with gray mottling and white variegation will look when they turn pink in the bright sun-how precious!

The variegated string of hearts propagation can be done through stem cuttings or division of the plant. It is important to ensure that the cuttings have at least one node and are placed in well-draining soil to encourage root growth.

When and How to Water Your Variegated Chain of Hearts Plant 

The variegated string of hearts is able to withstand long periods of drought by storing water in its fleshy leaves and stem, and it still looks fabulous.

From spring to fall, you can give your string of hearts a good soak when the soil mix becomes dry. And get this, in the winter months; you only need to water sparingly about once a month!  

Whenever you touch the soil, if it feels like a desert with no sign of moisture, or if those cute little leaves of the variegated string of hearts start to look wrinkled or shriveled up - that's when you know your strings of hearts are thirsty!

If you have this stunning trailing succulent in a container, make sure to water it more often than those planted in the ground.

So, it's important to monitor the soil moisture level, adjust the watering schedule as needed, and avoid overly wet soil.

Light Requirements - Where to Place Your Chain of Hearts Plant 

When grown indoors, place your variegated string of hearts in the sunniest place in your house. This string of hearts may benefit from shade in consistently hot climates. It is ideal to grow this succulent in a west- or a few feet away from a south-facing window. 

If you are growing it outdoors, your variegated string of hearts should be planted in bright, indirect sunlight and needs a minimum of 5-6 hours of bright light daily.

In bright light, the leaf will be more pronounced, with a white or light green variegation pattern that even turns pink. It can also tolerate low light, but the leaf will be more green and have less variegation. 

String plants have uniform spacing between leaves and flowers, while plants lacking this uniformity often result from maintenance errors like insufficient light or overwatering, causing blank spaces.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

When it comes to choosing the right soil for your adorable variegated string of hearts plant, you need to be careful! You see, the amount of moisture in the soil can literally make or break your little growing hearts. That's why we at Planet Desert have got your back with our specialized succulent potting mix. This organic substrate has mycorrhizae which help grow a healthy root system. As an okay alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil.

The natural balanced fertilizers with NPK (5-10-5) are the best choice as they last longer and keep your soil alive by adding other beneficial compounds and microbes that encourage plant health and nutrient absorption. So, skip those harsh chemicals and give your variegated string of hearts plants some love with a good natural fertilizer! 

Hardiness Zones & More 

When growing indoors, the variegated string of hearts should ideally be kept between 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit to promote healthy growth. Hailing from South Africa, the variegated string of hearts is a tropical plant that is typically grown indoors. It is important to avoid placing the plant near drafty windows or heating vents, as extreme temperature fluctuations can stress the plant.

If grown outdoors, it grows best in USDA zone 11-12.  This string of hearts cannot handle frost, cold, or freezing temperatures, so make sure it doesn't get below 45 F in its environment. 

They prefer constant temperatures above 70 degrees Fahrenheit and can tolerate triple digits in the summer, so don't worry if your heart plant gets too hot.

Therefore, it is a relatively hardy and adaptable plant that can thrive best in a variety of indoor settings with proper care.

Holds up well with aggressive chewers.
Size: X-Small, Color: Pig
This is my dog's favorite toy. And she has LOTS of toys so that is big endorsement. Miss Trina ( 40 pound boxer) loves to squeak it in Enzo's ( big brother 140 pound Cane Corso) face when he is sleeping. They also play tug of war . They destroy the toy eventually ( we are on the third one) but it holds for a few weeks. Miss Trina also likes to par corps around the house with this toy. Her favorite way to use this toy is bring it my husband for him to throw it . If he is napping she just drops in on his face. Definately recommend this toy.

Fun toy for my dogs but squeaker broke easily
Size: X-Small, Color: Pig
So far my aggressive chewer dog hasn’t been able to rip this toy apart but in one day she did break the squeaker inside. But I like that she hasn’t been able to rip it apart so it is pretty tough. I got this on a deal so it was good price for a toy that will last. Put 1 star down because the squeaker quality wasn’t the best when she was able to break it so fast. Esp love that it has no stuffing. And it’s a cute pink pig which is great.

The cutest softest, quack, quack
Color: PINK
My seven year-old full octane energy 12 pound dog is obsessed with ducks every toy that she’s ever gotten really attached to has been a duck and I bought the same exact up from a different store at least a dozen times because she was obsessed with it. But as soon as she would get the noisemaker out of it, it was time for anyone. But it was so cheaply made I decided to start getting her different ducks that were supposed to be harder to destroy, and we still have a graveyard of destroyed ducks. But this one she doesn’t wanna destroy it. It only has one little squeaker is what I call it so she doesn’t care to try to tear it open and take it out. The material is extremely lush and soft and it is incredibly adorable. I don’t really know what makes it an interactive toy though, but I recommend it.
