Hoya Heart (Hoya kerrii)

COP 0.00

Hoya heart is a succulent-style foliage plant valued for its single, heart-shaped leaf and compact form.

Hoya heart features a thick, fleshy, heart-shaped leaf with a smooth surface and deep green coloration, most commonly sold as a single-node cutting. The leaf stores water, giving it a firm, succulent-like structure and allowing it to tolerate extended dry periods. In this single-leaf form, it remains a static, minimal display plant; when grown from multi-node cuttings, it can develop vining stems, but single-leaf specimens do not produce active trailing growth. This plant is widely used in interior environments for its novelty appeal, compact size, and extremely low-maintenance care.

Why it works

· Distinct heart-shaped leaf creates strong novelty appeal

· Compact form fits very small spaces

· Extremely low-maintenance and drought-tolerant

Key Specs

Light: Bright Indirect Light

Water: Low; allow soil to dry deep between waterings

Temperature: 65–85°F

Habit: Upright, single-leaf (non-vining unless multi-node)

Size Class: Small

Growth Rate: Slow
