My poor plants arrived badly damaged from transit, but I am happy to report they've rebounded beautifully. Don't let it's delicate appearance fool you, silver falls is tough stuff. It has grown quickly and trails beautifully from my hanging basket. Guests are attracted to it and everyone loves its sheen and the way it feels at hand.
