Description
Ceropegia woodii is an evergreen succulent trailing vine with heart-shaped leaves. The leaves are dark green with silvery white on the upper surface and purple on the underside. As the plant matures, it develops a woody caudex at its base. The roots, and occasionally the stems, will often develop tubers. On the stems, these tubers form at nodes and are likely the reason for the common name of rosary vine.
