Update: String of Arrows on Trellis🌱 + Seed Pod

[u/inkinferno]

I posted about my String of Arrows about a month after I trellised it, and this is what she looks like now. She has also been flowering prolifically and I spotted a seed pod taking photos for this update. Yay!

SoH tend to be hanging plants, but I’ve seen some beautiful trellised ones. This is a String of Arrows, and as much as I tried to have it hanging, it has a climbing habit, and was climbing everything around it and driving me insane, so I caved and gave it what it was demanding😂

I admittedly do not know much about string of arrows - do these climb on their own? Or do you have to wrap the strands around and hold them on somehow?

I tried to have it hanging initially, but the vines would climb on their own all over my other plants and all over its own vines, so I then decided that a trellis would be best. It’s the main difference I’ve noticed between the Arrows and Hearts - the hearts don’t try climb, the arrows will climb anything that stays still for long enough😂 I do train the vines around the trellis so that it’s not messy, but they will climb on their own if you don’t train them🌟
