In this video I share with you my care tips and secrets on how to care and grow the String of Hearts, everything from the lighting, watering and soil medium requirements to the different propagation methods I do to help promote a nicer, fuller and thicker String of Hearts.

Is anyone else feeling major plant envy rn? 😅
All the way to. PORTSMOUTH UK utter awe and envy!
Yeah I'm kind of upset right now!
I literally cussed him out at 0:01
Yeeeeea😩😩
Major envy! This is the most beautiful string of hearts ever! 💕 I love how the look when they get sufficient lighting. I need to get more for sure! Our new house doesn't have much light except a few spots. Thanks for sharing this video with us! I love propagating it, took me a while to get the hang of it but finally got it lol.
You are the king of this plant. There is no other string of hearts plant that equals yours. Great great job!
Sheila Casper thanks Sheila. 👑 😊
This is true. I think of CPG whenever i look at my SOH.
TRUE
@@CrazyPlantGuy I’m sure your making a lot of profits on your strings of hearts
*cries in north facing window*
Oh no. 😅
Don’t worry it works as well! I live in Sweden (even further up north than Toronto and his majestic SOH😍) so it has even less sunlight than his, especially during the winter. It grows a bit slower but just as well!
@@andreaunge6398 have you tried a grow light ? I recently got this plant and only have a north window in my room
I have a variegated string of hearts growing in my north-facing window no problem! It does get some east sunlight but very little.
Lol!
In Australia, where this plant is actually native, you need to grow it in a *North* facing window if growing indoors. Sometimes people forget there's a whole southern half of the planet called the Southern hemisphere 😵💫
😅true. I’m in South Africa and North facing windows are best for my plants
We remember Hannah!! I am happy for YOUR insights. I just moved my SOH from a north-facing window (with woods nearby) to an east-facing window. (with lots of light plus a tree slightly off-center of it)...and have grow lights. Hoping for the best.
So many channels spend six hours talking about their new puppy and what they had for lunch and then about 3 seconds talking about what you want to know and I just want to say a HUGE thank you for getting straight to the point. Your videos are so helpful!
Wow. Every single second of this video was packed with helpful information. I don’t think I’ve ever paid such close attention to a video before! 😂 Thank you SO much!
😁 glad you found it helpful.
My grandma just gave me a huge amount of cuttings from her SOH and I’m super excited to go plant them 🥰
Oh wow. That’s so awesome and great to see plants get shared and passed down with family. 😊💚
leila lalala I just propagated some of them today some soil and some leca! hopefully the leca turns out cuz it’s got long beautiful strands that were really really happy at my grandma's....!
@leila lalala I still can't believe my grandma had one and just ripped it up unceremoniously for me! I think she's just happy that I love plants as much as she does!
Butter Belly Babe how are they?
Cassie W they’re doing ok. Water propagation didn’t work but I’ve got em on some spaghnum/ perlite in a prop box now
I was just in checking out my 1 strand of SOH. 😂 Came on and here is all this info. Thanks Christian.
Lol. Hope You can turn that 1 into multiple strands 😃
same here ... i cut it to hopefully prop
I got my string of hearts after loving yours and putting it on my wish list. I found it at my local nursery off by itself in a 2 inch pot with about 2 or 3 rough vines. I’ve had him for about 4 months, he’s much happier and I’m trying propagating... headed to about 8 vines now... process. ♥️
Lizz Keiper that’s awesome. Great to read that yours is doing well and doubling up your vines through propagation. 😊
I love putting these guys under a couple hours of direct sunlight - it intensifies the purple coloration which is just gorgeous. So yeah, my SoH never burned even under intense Manila summer temps.
In my experience, the variegated SoH loves sun even more.
Sometimes I think you just like to pose with you plants in front of the mirrow when nobody is watching.
🤫 you’re not suppose to tell everyone that. 😅
@@CrazyPlantGuy 😂🤣
1st time plant owner here & we have 3 special, very meaningful string of hearts babies that we got as beautiful gifts from a really wonderful friend of ours.. 🪴
Thank you so much for your video & advice on how to look after these plant babies 🙏🏾
Our string of heart babies has a very special job ahead of them, once their established.. Will be sprinkling a little bit of our very beloved pets ashes into each of them so our beloved sweet Benji Baby will still grow & thrive through our plant babies..
Our Benji Baby was always full of love to any1 and every1 especially to kids, literally to the end of his time & we feel that these string of hearts plant babies are him all over, just in plant versions of him.. They surround his ashes now as babies until they grow big, they'll be like his own little beautiful curtains 🪴🐶💖
I let my beautiful string of hearts die and as I sadly took it out to the trash I found one tiny living string with half a dozen leaves on it - I have done what you said and put it in water and am crossing my fingers like mad hoping it will grow - you have reassured me that I will probably have success!!! Thank you!! ❤
Man is up here flexing with his plant harder than I’ve ever been able to about anything.
In my life Nobody has explained a plants need of light so well. People always say x plant needs plenty of light , but not direct! I’m like what ???? 😤 but it’s So simple , you say “You have to make sure the plant has a good view of the sky” . Thanks so much 🙂 now I know I’m doing it right 👍
Mine is currently flowering and I've only had her since February. When I got her she was completely in the pot and now she's really long 😍. Not as long as yours though Christian. Hopefully one day soon. She really likes my west facing window even with the overhang outside. I will say to anyone that can get to San Diego California. If you want a string of hearts there are places here you can get them for a reasonable price. Cordova Gardens in Encinitas has 6 inch pots for 18bucks(last I checked) and they do carry variegated. I bought my two small variegated pots for 10bucks each there. I've also seen regular soh sold at Kobe's Swap Meet for 25 for a 6inch. Hope that helps someone. I know online prices can get crazy. Spread the plant love peeps 🌱🚿✌🏼
Bianca Jacobo awesome. Thanks for sharing how yours is doing and where to find them in SD. 😊
I want to get a string of hearts for in my bedroom. The place I have in mind would be 8 feet from my west facing window. Could this be an issue, not enough light?
Thanks Bianca for the information. I live in Mira Mesa and I wonder that do you keep your SOH indoor or outdoor. Thanks in advance for your reply.
@@-Annn- Hello, I believe you can have them at that distance with a grow light. Probably not with regular lighting unless you have very bright light in that location. I use to have mine directly in my west facing window with an overhang but with winter here it wasn't getting enough light and was dropping a few leaves so i had to get supplemental lighting.
@@nhungochoa No problem. I have mine indoors under a growlight currently.
This is the best specimen of this plant I've ever seen! We added one to our indoor garden and you covered all my questions. Thanks! - Subscribed
Every time I read plant guides and care none of them explain anything as clearly as you just did. Thank you!! Subscribed.
I had one when my kids were small. I had the best three bay windows! I finally got a few peices off line. I can't wait to see it grow. Mine had big rock looking peices all over and purple flowers all over at times. My favorite plant if all time.
those dislikes has no heart...
At this point I think you should create a special fanclub dedicated for this particular soh. It's definitely such a stunner! My friend who is not even a plant lover went crazy when I showed her your soh😍
Haha. That’s awesome. Love hearing non plant people take notice of plants 🙃
Just got mine today, I’m so excited! And it’s warms my heart to see how truly you care about them!
Greetings from a fellow plant lover from Brazil ♥️
Soooooo right on time!!! My lil baby isn't doing well but I moved her a week ago to a brighter area and was crossing my fingers. This was so helpful!
I just got my first string of hearts yesterday. I can’t wait until it looks like this. Thank you for all the good information!!
I bought one last week, and it was all bundled up on top. I just untangled it and was blown away at how LONG it is! I had never heard of these before! ❤ it!
Getting one soon. Will watch later , thanks for you time.
One of the most beautiful plants! Mine is growing so well in a huge northeast window. I recently moved my office around and had to move mine and it definitely got so tangled. I also had to trim it as it was about 9ft long!
Have a great week Christian !!🌿🌿
Wow. 9ft. Amazing and glad to know it’s thriving in a northeast. 😊
You inspired me to buy one since I saw your lushious chain of hearts. Now just waiting for mine to grow!❤
I’ve been loving all of your fun creative intros!!
Great info! Thank you for sharing!
I’m so jelly!!! Your string of hearts is gorgeous!!!💚💚💚
This was straightforward, very informative, and fast! Every single moment was filled with extremely helpful information. I have two beautiful string of hearts that are going crazy! Learning how to propagate will make them even more beautiful. One plant is under a grow light and the other one in a south facing window. Both are doing great. Thank you so much!
That plant is stunningly beautiful!
Thanks for the tips! I just bought my first string of hearts and can't wait to start propagating!
I just yesterday received my string of hearts. Ive got a long way to go to look anywhere near as beautiful and large as your string of hearts Thank you
I love your string of hearts. I thought it was Variegated, but I see the difference now. Thanks for sharing again! 💕
Thanks so much for this video. There’s lots of good info here! Your plant is absolutely gorgeous, I can’t wait for mine to get as lush as this. We also just got a super small variegated one. We will take al your info and put it to good use. 👍🏼😊 God bless
Loved this! So informative!
Thanks so much for this! Mine turned into an absolute Diva when I moved her into my new green room! Now I can help her grow . The green room is the only place she can grow long and full, so she's going to have to get over herself! :)
Sometimes plants will throw a fit when you do move them to a new a spot. Hope she clams down.
Oh I can’t even with that slow mo turn you did while holding your chain of hearts with the sexy music in the beginning of the video 😂😂😂 love it 😂😭😂😭😂. I needed that laugh thank you so much. OK I’m gonna watch the rest of the video video now.

Phenomenal 👏🏾
Actually laughed out loud on that intro! Love Crazy Plant Guy!
Hi, Christian! Your string of heats is beautiful! I was definitely inspired to get one of my own,thanks to you. I was wondering if you could show us how you put your rooted cuttings in the top of the plant. My cuttings are rooted, but i'm scared to put them in the top of the mother plant because i dont want to damage the mother roots. What is the best method that works for you? How deep do i plant the rooted cuttings? Etc..
Great information! Very practical approach!
Beautiful string of heart ❤️
I love love love LOVE love Strings of Hearts.
Wow! That is a beauty.
Great to know it is on my eish list.
Very well explained . thanks.
Beautiful! My hearts are super long too but not that long just yet. And when it stays warm, I'll be propagating more to fill the pots up more. I can't wait!
I just bought my 1st string of hearts plant...fast growing!!!❤❤❤
