Written by Emily Belkoff

Want to make your garden look super pretty without much work? I’ve fallen in love with vines that have the cutest heart-shaped leaves! 

As a mom who can barely keep up with watering plants, I was thrilled to find these easy-to-grow beauties. Here are my top picks that’ll make your garden look amazing!

9 Beautiful Vines with Heart-Shaped Leaves

1. Streams of Hearts

I first discovered this delightful vine at my local nursery, and it was love at first sight.

The semi-succulent vine creates the most enchanting display with its heart-shaped leaves dancing along purple stems.

I’ve found it absolutely perfect for hanging baskets on my front porch, where it creates a cascading curtain of tiny hearts.

2. Bleeding Heart Vine

This romantic climber holds a special place in my garden (and my heart!).

Every spring, I’m treated to a stunning show of white blossoms with red accents that perfectly complement the delicate heart-shaped foliage.

It’s like having Valentine’s Day in my garden all season long!

3. Morning Glory ‘Heavenly Blue’

Let me tell you about my love affair with morning glories – they never fail to bring a smile to my face.

The large heart-shaped leaves create a gorgeous backdrop for those stunning trumpet-shaped flowers that greet me every summer morning.

I’ve trained them along my fence, up trellises, and even around my mailbox post – they’re wonderfully adaptable!

4. Dutchman’s Pipe

This unique vine has become quite the conversation starter in my garden.

Its distinctive heart-shaped leaves are impressive enough, but those unusual large blooms really steal the show.

I grow mine in large containers near my patio where it gets plenty of sunlight, and it rewards me with the most spectacular blooming display.

5. Purple Bell Vine

Oh, how I adore the delicate nature of this stunning climber!

The way its thread-like stems suspend those lovely purple flowers above the heart-shaped green foliage creates such a magical effect.

It’s like having fairy lights in my garden, but in plant form!

6. Heartleaf Philodendron

This was my gateway plant into the world of heart-shaped vines, and it still captivates me.

The evergreen leaves trail so gracefully from hanging baskets, adding year-round interest to my covered porch.

I particularly love the Mikans and Brazil varieties – they’ve proven to be such reliable performers in my collection.

7. Rex Begonia Vine

This vine never fails to draw attention with its uniquely patterned leaves.

The frosty silver pattern on the heart-shaped foliage, combined with those striking red undersides, creates such drama.

I’ve found the sweet spot for mine in a bright corner that doesn’t get direct sunlight.

8. Betel Leaf Plant

This fascinating member of the pepper family has become one of my favorite sensory plants.

Its waxy, heart-shaped leaves release the most interesting peppery scent when brushed against.

While I appreciate its culinary and medicinal history, I mainly grow it for its aromatic qualities and beautiful foliage.

9. Sweet Potato Vine

This vigorous grower has become my go-to for quick coverage and classic heart-shaped charm.

The white blooms with their pink-red centers are an unexpected bonus to the already beautiful foliage.

I make sure to give it plenty of bright light, and in return, it spreads quickly to fill any empty spaces in my garden design.
