Meet the Sweetheart Hoya—the Valentine that lasts a lifetime. With her thick, perfectly heart-shaped succulent leaves, she’s a symbol of love and resilience. Whether she’s a single leaf "heart" in a pot or a climbing vine of green hearts, she’s the ultimate romantic addition to any sunny shelf!

  • The Formal Name: Hoya kerrii
  • The Nickname: Sweetheart Plant or Valentine Hoya
  • Roots: A tropical climber hailing from the humid forests of Southeast Asia.
  • Natural Vibe: Twining through the canopy of the hot, tropical jungle.

Care Guide

  • Care Guide:
  • Sunlight: She loves bright, indirect light. A little morning sun will keep her "hearts" firm and happy.
  • Best Room: A bright kitchen or a south-facing bedroom windowsill.
  • Snacks: A balanced orchid or houseplant fertiliser once a month during spring and summer.
  • Tropical Feels: She enjoys average home humidity but loves a bit of extra moisture in the air.
  • Cosy Factor: Prefers a warm 18–27°C. Keep her away from icy window panes!
  • Thirst: She’s a succulent at heart! Let the soil dry out completely before watering thoroughly.
  • Safety First: Non-toxic – completely safe for curious pets and children.
  • The Bedding: A very chunky, well-draining mix (like orchid bark and perlite).
  • Family Tree: Propagate via stem cuttings with at least one node. (Note: Single leaves rarely grow into vines!)
  • Space Needs: As a vine, she can eventually climb or trail up to 4 metres.
  • Speed: Notoriously slow-growing—be patient with her!
  • Uninvited Guests: Watch for mealybugs hiding in the "cleft" of the hearts.
  • Moving Day: Rarely needed; she loves being root-bound. Repot every 3–4 years.
  • Haircut: Do not cut the long, leafless tendrils—that’s where new leaves and flowers grow!
  • Fresh Air: A beautiful and sturdy natural air purifier.
  • Plant Lore: When she blooms, she produces clusters of "wax flowers" that smell like faint chocolate or vanilla.
