Hoya Sweetheart

• Botanical Name: Hoya kerrii
• Common Names: Sweetheart Plant, Valentine Hoya, Heart-Leaf Hoya
• Description: Hoya kerrii is a charming and slow-growing succulent-like plant known for its thick, heart-shaped leaves, making it a popular gift for Valentine's Day. Native to Southeast Asia, it is commonly grown as a single-leaf cutting or as a trailing vine. With proper care, it can produce clusters of fragrant, star-shaped flowers in shades of cream, pink, or yellow.
• Watering Needs: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water sparingly, as it is drought-tolerant and prone to root rot if overwatered. Reduce watering in the winter months.
• Preferred Humidity: Prefers moderate humidity levels (40-60%) but is tolerant of typical indoor conditions.
• Sun Exposure: Thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct morning sun but avoid harsh afternoon sunlight, which may scorch the leaves.
• Toxicity: Non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it a pet-friendly houseplant.
• Mature Size: Typically grows 2-4 inches tall when sold as a single-leaf cutting. When grown as a trailing plant, it can reach up to 4-6 feet in length.
• Plant Type: Evergreen Succulent-like Vine
• Hardiness Zone: USDA Zones 10-12 outdoors, but it is commonly grown indoors as a houseplant in most climates.
