Ceropegia "Rosary Vine" (Ceropegia woodii)

I've been after a Ceropegia woodii for a while now, so I was delighted to find this one when we stopped off at a garden centre on the way back from the botanic gardens today.
It has small leaves of 12/15mm, with flowers of about 20mm. The stems hang down in this plant and are a metre in length!

there is a weed called honesty, it has a purple flower but the seed cases that grow on it look just like part of your plant.

You are really lucky to have a garden center near you that carries such unusual plants! Here it's always the same old plants everywhere I look.

We have two or three Lauram! Unfortunately, it can be a little hit and miss, but they do have to make a profit.
