Caitlin the String of Hearts houseplant is a gorgeous little plant who grows heart shaped leaves down delicate vines. Grow a cascade or wrap them around your pot, she’s a real talking point!
☼ Sunlight: A bright sunny spot
Water: Keep moist but careful not to overwater
♡ Care: Easy
◯ Pot Size: fits 10-13cm
She will arrive in an 8cm plastic growing pot, or you can add on a perfectly fitting pot to go with her – I recommend a 10cm -13cm pot

Native to South Africa, Caitlin is part of the succulent family so doesn’t like her soil to be too wet (ideal for those of us who leave a while between waterings…) She’s a trailing houseplant and can get up to 90cm long but if that’s too much, I recommend wrapping her around the pot or giving her a little trim. It’s easy to take cuttings from her and propagate so get ready for some plant babies! She likes it relatively warm, with some sunlight but not prolonged direct sun as it can burn her beautiful leaves.
All of the houseplants in my shop are named after an inspiring woman. This time, it’s Caitlin (pronounced Cat-Lyn) after the fabulous Caitlin Moran. Her book ‘How to Build a Girl’ is a hilarious triumph and I highly recommend reading it. After you buy this plant.
When your plant arrives, here vines will be all coiled up in the package – this is how all hanging plants are shipped – it’s the best way to protect them. Gently unravel her and let the stems hang for a few days before trying to detangle/reposition them so not to cause too much stress. You will get some leaf loss but not to worry, she’s a speedy grower!
Good news! String of Hearts are widely considered to be non-toxic to pets. Try to keep out of reach though, in case your fluffy friend takes a liking to her…
