Native to South Africa, it’s a succulent-style plant that stores water in its stems, making it surprisingly low-maintenancefor something that looks this magical. Perfect for hanging baskets, high shelves, or trailing down from bookcases — the String of Hearts ‘Variegata’ is a guaranteed showstopper in any indoor jungle.
