Plant care: String of hearts
Light
To achieve the best colour and distribution of leaves, keep your String of hearts in bright, indirect light with occasional direct sun - but not all day.
Water
Water your String of hearts, allowing the soil to dry out in between drinks.
Humidity
Regular house humidity levels are ok.
Top Tip
If you notice the leaves are becoming increasingly spaced apart, or the colour is fading, your string of hearts is not getting enough light.
Seasonal
During warmer months, houseplants are actively growing and will appreciate regular plant food. During colder months, a plants growth rate slows down and so they often need less water
