‘Silver
Glory’
Who knew?
I had a reader ask how many kinds of
String of Hearts there are? At the time,
I thought it was one and only, Ceropegia woodii, String of Hearts.
Then a sister plant showed up ----
Ceropegia linearis woodii ---- now called ‘Heartless’ String of Daggers. The demand for this is endless.
Luckily, the internet allows new
ideas and pictures to flow around the world instantly. I looked at the right time and found ‘Silver
Glory’ String of Hearts. The heart
shaped leaves are solid silver on the outside giving a distinctive look ----
different from the traditional green and silver.
Assuming that ‘Silver Glory’ will be
stable in propagation, this will be a winner.

There is also the Variegated version and one solid green variety called Orange River. Not completely certain, but I think ‘String of Needles’ or Ceropegia linearis is also now classified as a variety on the woodii.
