The flowers are star-shaped, pink and white, and fragrant. The pot contains 2–3 plants. The colorful foliage creates a decorative effect all year round.

Foliage and variegation. The leaves are thick, glossy, and ovate. The central area is cream, yellow, or pale green, surrounded by green margins. New shoots may have pink, red, or purple tones that fade over time. The pattern varies from one leaf to another. The length of the vines varies from one specimen to another.

Flowers and fragrance. The flowers are star-shaped and waxy, grouped in umbels. Their color ranges from pinkish white to pink, with a darker corona. They are fragrant; the intensity may vary between blooms. Flowering depends on the plant's maturity and growing conditions.
