Hoya kerrii – The Sweetheart Plant
Botanical Name: Hoya kerrii
Common Names: Sweetheart Plant, Lucky-heart
The Hoya kerrii, affectionately known as the Sweetheart Plant or Lucky-heart, is a captivating houseplant admired for its distinctive heart-shaped leaves. Native to tropical Asia, it brings a delightful blend of charm and resilience, making it an ideal decorative piece or a thoughtful gift.
Please Note: The 3" and 4" pots contain single-leaf cuttings and will not develop vines. These are decorative, non-vining specimens.
Features & Benefits
-
Heart-Shaped Foliage:
The standout feature of this plant is its naturally heart-shaped leaf, making it a symbolic and meaningful gift for special occasions such as Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, or to express affection year-round. -
Tough Yet Lovely:
Don’t be fooled by its delicate appearance—Hoya kerrii is a hardy plant that thrives on minimal care, perfect for those seeking an easy, stress-free addition to their home or office. -
Slow and Steady Growth:
This plant is extremely slow-growing, especially in its single-leaf form. It serves more as a long-lasting ornamental accent than a rapidly growing houseplant. -
Warm Climate Adaptability:
As a tropical species, it prefers warm indoor conditions and adapts well to the average household environment. -
Memorable Gift Idea:
The symbolism of the heart-shaped leaf combined with the plant’s simplicity makes it a thoughtful gift that’s both personal and enduring.
Important Notes on Growth
- The 3" and 4" pots feature single-leaf cuttings that will not produce vines. These are intended for decorative purposes only.
- The "Double" option contains two single-leaf cuttings in the same pot.
- For those seeking a vining specimen, select our 6" pot variant, which contains a rooted and actively growing plant.
