Native to South Africa, Succulent Swedish Ivy is a
relatively unknown garden plant. It is a small perennial creeping
herb usually used in hanging baskets. It displays a profusion of tiny
thick lime green leaves forming a mat of foliage. Lines of purple form on
leaf edges if in bright light. Tiny white flowers with a hint of violet
appear in leaf axils. The plant has a mounding cascading habit.
