Ceropegia woodii (string of hearts, rosary vine). I think they're fairly easy to start from cuttings in soil, though I've not done it myself.

Ceropegia woodii (Rosary Vine)

Thank you, I think I'll cut a piece and put it in water-I never have luck rooting in soil!

I'd let it grow on some more before you try to make more of it, as it seems rather small.

Don't bother putting this in water, I doubt it will root, likely to rot instead (tho' I've never tried it). While I root many things in water, this is not one of them as it's a succulent.

Just place it down in the dirt, making sure the nodes make contact in the mix, you could even peg it down w/ a paper clip or piece of pipe cleaner.

Look closely at their stems, if you see any little tiny whitish balls, cut that stem off to root, placing the tuber under the soil a bit, that whitish ball is a tuber, the reproductive manner of this plant (like planting the eye of a potato).

Hi Shasta,

I totally agree with pirate girl on this one. Cerapegia woodii does not root well in water. Do yourself a favor and root it in soil. Pirate girl has given you very good instructions on how to do it. My only addition would be to put it in a cactus soil mix and water on the light side.

Nice plant!
