The String of Arrows, known as Ceropegia woodii ‘String of Arrows’, is a captivating trailing succulent plant known for its unique, arrow-shaped leaves and delicate cascading vines. This well-loved variety of Ceropegia woodii retains the same drought tolerance and easy-care nature but features elongated, pointed leaves resembling arrowheads. Its trailing stems can reach impressive lengths, making it an excellent choice for hanging baskets, shelves, or trellises. With its striking foliage and occasional blooms, the String of Arrows is a popular houseplant among collectors and succulent lovers. 

Native to South Africa, this fast-growing Ceropegia String of Arrows plant has more pointed foliage and a lighter coloration of lime green and silver. It can also turn pink in direct sunlight. It shines in a hanging pot and can grow trailing stems 3 feet long. 

Like other Ceropegia woodii varieties, this plant develops small, bead-like tubers along the stems, which can be used for propagation.

Its cascading vines make it a great choice for indoor hanging planters or vertical gardening.

The String of Arrows produces small, tubular, lantern-shaped flowers that are pinkish-purple to deep maroon in color.

These blooms have a wax-like texture and are designed to attract specific pollinators, particularly small flies.

The flowers have a funnel-shaped opening with fine hair inside, temporarily trapping insects to aid in pollination before releasing them.

While not grown primarily for flowers, this plant can bloom multiple times a year in bright conditions. 

When it comes to care, water your string of Arrows thoroughly, but allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, especially in cool or humid environments.

Use a well-drained specialized  succulent mix, preferably with added perlite or sand for aeration. It prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct sun. In low light, growth slows down, and vines may become leggy. Feed with a balanced NPK fertilizer once a year during the growing season in the spring. Avoid excessive feeding in winter. 

When grown indoors, your string of arrows prefers 60–80°F. Avoid temperatures below 50°F, as it is not frost-hardy.

For outdoor cultivation, it is suitable in USDA Zones 10–12 but should be brought indoors in colder climates. 

The String of Arrows is easy to propagate, making it an ideal plant for sharing with friends or expanding your collection. These include tuber propagation, stem cuttings, and leaf node propagation.

According to ASPCA, the String of Arrows is non-toxic to humans, cats, dogs, and humans, making it a pet-friendly houseplant. 

Final Thoughts

Overall, The String of Arrows (Ceropegia woodii ‘String of Arrows’) is a stunning, low-maintenance trailing plant with distinctive arrow-shaped foliage, drought tolerance, and unique flowers. Whether cascading from a hanging basket or climbing up a trellis, its delicate vines add an elegant touch to any space. With proper care—adequate light, well-draining soil, and occasional watering—this plant will thrive and continue to produce lush, trailing stems year after year. Its ease of propagation and non-toxic nature make it an excellent choice for both beginner and experienced plant lovers.

Good moisturizer. Rich scent.
Scent: Smoky coffee, Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Raw Batana Oil provides goods moisturizing to hair and scalp and best applied with a little heat or steam. Pomade goes on easily once heated and does not feel heavy, greasy, or oily. Its rich fragrance eases on the nose after a short while. Difficult to say whether it is actually useful or whether it encourages hair growth. Leaves hair soft and easy to style.

Great buy, good quality and really nice results!
Color: Dark, Color: Dark
I really like how silk and smooth this tanner feels! It’s not sticky tacky goop like some other brands can be and it’s really effective. Applying it went well as the product isn’t too thick or too thin, so making an even coat wasn’t an issue. It has a dark green tint which makes the product give its deep rich glow which is good for some medium toned to darker tone flesh colors. The effect is as though you’ve been in the sun deep in the tropics near the equator getting a daily golden caramel baked glow from some strong sun rays for a couple weeks. Works great and could be used for other than face in a pinch if needed...though you’ll probably want to buy a bigger bottle first because you’ll love it!!

Works great - don't let the dark color freak you out
Color: Dark
I am a reasonably fair skinned Caucasian person whose body can become moderately tan but my face does not, just burns and freckles. I don't tan my face at all and require a self tanner that makes my face color match my body. I have tried many expensive ones, and this is the best and most reasonably priced I have found. The stain works almost immediately and dries quickly so you have to work fast to smooth it evenly over your face. I skip the step of wearing a glove to apply and wash my hands immediately afterward but usually have to scrub with a wash cloth to get the color off. if you wait several minutes, you can add another layer to deepen the color (wash hands in between layers) but I use a generous amount with the first application so I usually don't have to. Most of the other facial self tanners I have tried have not been dark enough, even with multiple applications. This gives you a noticeable tan with just one application. Warning: it comes out of the bottle very alarmingly dark but it won't be dark like that after you apply it.

Great face self tanner
Color: Dark, Color: Dark
I only gave 4 stars because the Dark wasn’t that dark so the product isn’t very pigmented In a sense that’s good so you don’t go too over board but for someone who’s very fair and wants to get a dark tan it’s probably be difficult I love the smell, I was parried it would smell funny, the loving tan kind of smells like Dirt and this one smells like flowers and sweets. Not sticky and fast drying so I think it’s good for the face

Works fast and looks natural
Color: Dark
I have used a lot of facial tanners, and this one is a winner, by far the best I've tried. After only 3 applications, I see a definite difference in my skin tone. The color looks like a natural, sun-acquired tan. You only need a little, easily applied with the gloves that come with your order. I put it on at night before bed and let it dry. Protect your pillow though, as some of the tint rubs off. I really like this tanner.
