Hoya kerrii, also known as the "Sweetheart Plant" is an easy to care for tropical indoor plant with thick, succulent heart shaped leaves. This vining plant grows well in a hanging basket, but we prefer to allow them to climb for a more dramatic effect.
Hoya kerrii is a relatively slow grower but the real treat is when it flowers. The flowers on this species are magnificent!
Hoya kerrii care:
Make sure your new plant is in a well draining soil that is rich in organic matter. Allow your plant to dry out almost completely between watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Provide plenty of bright indirect for a happy Hoya!
NOTE: The photo is of a 4” Kerrii basket. The 2” Kerrii has multiple leaves but will not be as full and does not come in a basket. New photo to come.
