I’ve never had a string of hearts before but after a couple months mine has given me so much growth and now it’s flowering 🥹 (but just curious, do y’all think this one is leggy? I feel like the leaves are very far apart, unless that’s normal)

    It does seem a bit leggy to me

      Hmmmm it’s sitting in a mostly east facing window, so I feel like it’s getting tons of light especially in the mornings 🤨 but I do have it trailing facing away from the window (as shown), maybe if I move it back and face the strings towards the sun??

      Can always chop the leggy bit and put them back in the soil to grow a fuller plant. Still adjust the lighting and then hopefully the new growth isn’t as leggy.

    it’s probably getting leggy in the parts where the vines dip lower than the window! i have mine hanging high in my window & she’s super long & bushy but if her vines hit a dense part of my blinds that don’t allow for sunlight they get leggy & i have to chop her back. i definitely recommend hanging these plants & letting the full plant get direct light.

    The gap between the leaves are formed as the vines emerge from the soil. It’s growing fast to find more light/water. I recommend adding a grow light or moving it to a south window with sheer curtains to decrease the intensity of the light. Monitor the soil moisture levels so the leaves don’t get too dry. The leaves look a bit under watered.

      Oh yeah I took this pic right before I watered her 😅

    Okay, so I moved her back and faced her towards the sun. I chopped a couple vines to test since I haven’t propped this one before, I removed the leaves from the bottom node and stuck the bare node end in the pot. Hopefully this works 🫣

    I bought little suction cups with hooks, so I could vine mine upwards on the window.
