One of the most attractive species of the genus. While most of the Ceropegias produce rather nondescript foliage which is typically lost during periods of drought, Ceropegia woodii produces attractive, heart-shaped, succulent leaves which are beautifully marbled in silvery green and are more or less permanent. Great in a hanging basket.

The Cactus King's cacti and succulents have gone international! If you ever find yourself in China with a little spare time, head to the Chimelong Ocean Kingdom. It is the largest Aquarium in the world (no big deal, pun definitely intended).
The Cactus King's plants are also featured in the Chimelong Ocean Kingdom's partner parks. These include their water park, amusement park, crocodile park and botanical gardens.
