The difference between heartleaf vine and green radish

1. Differences in leaf shape

The leaves of the heart-leaf vine are just like its name, shaped like a heart and very regular. The leaves are almost the same size from bottom to top. Although the leaves of the green ivy are also heart-shaped, they are not very regular. They appear to be elongated, and the sizes are different at the top and bottom. The bottom ones are wider and get smaller as they go up, roughly in the shape of a pyramid.

2. Difference in leaf color

The most intuitive and easiest way to distinguish the two is from the color. Heart-leaf vine is also called emerald, and its leaves are dark green in color. The leaves of the green radish come in many colors, usually a lighter emerald green, but some varieties are light golden yellow.

3. Differences in morphology

The whole body of the heartleaf vine is drooping, with the leaves hanging down. The whole plant of the green ivy stretches outward like petals. The two are very easy to identify in terms of shape.
