• Grown, packaged and shipped exclusively by Wekiva Foliage. It’s pretty clear how this “Sweetheart Plant” got its nickname, with its spade- or heart-shaped leaves (or bum-shaped, if you want to be cheeky about it). It’s also called a Hoya Heart, Wax Heart, or a Lucky Heart. Hoya Kerrii (its official plant name) are actually tropical succulent vines that can grow quite long, but you most often just see individual cuttings of their thick waxy leaves in a single pot.
• Slow-growing, it will take a few years to become a long vine studded with hearts. Mature vining plants will grow clusters of flowers in summer, when given plenty of sunlight. Typically pink with red star-shaped centers, they resemble the blooms of the popular Hoya carnosa.
• When it comes to caring for hoya kerrii, thinking of them as succulents helps. They require lots of sun, a little bit of water, and well-draining soil. Basically, they thrive on neglect. Give them a sunny windowsill in your home and some water every few weeks and they will be happy.
• As it is, this plant is slow growing, so plenty of light will ensure its leaf (or leaves!) grows healthy and full. They need at least a few hours a day of direct sunlight, so consider placing it near an east or west facing window.
• Allow the soil to dry thoroughly between waterings. Hoya kerrii can withstand long periods of drought thanks to their thick, water-storing leaves and are highly susceptible to overwatering and root rot. The amount of water that your hoya kerrii needs will vary by season.
