Ceropegia ampliata is a flowering plant in the dogbane family Apocynaceae, native to eastern and southern Africa, including Kenya, Tanzania, Mozambique, South Africa, Eswatini, Botswana, and Madagascar.

[3][4] Ceropegia ampliata is a trailing plant with a succulent stem and reduced leaves.

The leaves may drop early, as the stem is the main photosynthetic organ, and it may form tuberous root structures.

The corolla tube can be curved or straight, with an inflation at the base, and can grow up to 50-70 mm long.

After the fruit follicles dry out and split, the tufted seeds are dispersed by wind.
