Origin + Story

A newer cultivar, layered green-on-green: lighter centers framed by deeper edges.

The species is native to the Solomon Islands. 'Global Green' is a newer cultivar, selected for its layered green-on-green variegation: lighter green centers framed by deeper green edges.

Heart-shaped leaves with a soft, two-tone green pattern. Reads more like a watercolor than a traditional variegation. Trails or climbs.

Grows well in hanging planters, on top shelves, in low-light spaces, with beginners and seasoned collectors alike.
