Ceropegia Ace of Spades

Ceropegia 'Ace of Spades' is a stunning trailing succulent admired for its rich, dark purple foliage shaped like miniature spades or hearts. The deep, velvety tones and delicate vining habit make it a captivating addition to any hanging basket, shelf, or succulent arrangement.

Closely related to the popular String of Hearts, 'Ace of Spades' offers a bolder, more dramatic colour palette, with its dark, almost black leaves standing out beautifully against lighter green plants. In the right conditions, it produces small, tubular flowers with unique, lantern-like shapes, adding an extra layer of interest.

This plant is easy to grow indoors, requiring bright, indirect light and infrequent watering. Its cascading vines can be trained to trail elegantly or climb with support, making it a versatile choice for creative plant displays.
