There are a few Hoya's out there which make ideal houseplants, Hoya kerrii or the Sweetheart Plant is one of them. This classic beauty is known for its heart-shaped leaves that grow on a single vine; a slow grower, the Hoya Kerrii is most commonly sold only as a single rooted leaf. So we are very excited to have a few more mature plants available for our customers! Like all Hoyas (aka wax plants), clusters of star-shaped flowers will eventually emerge along the stems. Happy to climb up a trellis or cascade over the sides of its pot, Hoya kerrii is one of those must-have plants for any collector.

Hoya kerrii is drought resistant and easy to care for! Its thick waxy leaves, flowers and stems keep the plant happy and hydrated during dry periods. So please allow the soil to dry between waterings. Drought tolerant, place your Sweetheart Hoya where it will receive bright indirect light, and allow to dry out between waterings

Best of all, it is totally pet-safe!

Make sure to not overwater the Hoya. It is susceptible to root rot, but usually it is located only on specific vines, so it can be salvaged.

💧Water sparingly to keep on the dry side. The Hoya is a semi-succulent so it has the ability to hold in more water💧

⛅ Give the Hoya bright indirect light. Of course, never any direct sunlight ⛅
