Variegated String of Hearts

Meet my Pepa, or Pompeyo? I originally called her Pepa because she's pink, but for some odd reason this little pot reminds me of a little clown face. I guess that's why I started calling it Pompeyo instead. 
Anyway,  I bought a clipping on Etsy of the VSOH's then saw that it did 'work' so I went off and bought another 2. I did the butterfly method to propagate,  that worked wonders imo. 
(12.99 each clipping plus shipping x's 2)
I had heard they're slow growers, but to me they grow pretty decent. 
I am loving this little plant more and more as it grows. I am glad I decided to order another 2 clippings to give the little pot a fuller look.
I have the regular SOH's but they don't catch my eye as much as these do.
I just love the variegation on them leaves. I got these September 2020 as just clippings, and we're February 2021. Let's see how he'll look from here to this next September when he turns 1.
