Sweetheart Hoya kerrii, Single Heart, 2.5-Inch Pot

A single, thick green heart makes this Hoya kerrii a small gift with plenty of charm. Set its tiny nursery pot on a bright shelf and enjoy the simple silhouette. This is a single-leaf heart plant.

Size and what ships

One live, single heart-shaped Hoya kerrii leaf in a 2.5-inch nursery grow pot. Heart shape, leaf size, and green tone vary naturally. Single-leaf Hoya kerrii plants often remain as one leaf for a long time; without a stem node, they may never form a vine. 

Care guide

• Light: Give bright indirect light. Gentle morning sun may be suitable, but protect the leaf from intense afternoon sun.
• Water: Let the mix dry substantially between thorough waterings, then allow excess to drain. A small pot can dry at different speeds depending on your room, so check the mix rather than watering on a calendar.
• Soil: Use a loose, fast-draining mix in a pot with drainage. Avoid dense, consistently wet soil.
• Temperature and humidity: Keep warm and away from frost and cold drafts. Average indoor humidity is generally suitable.
• Feeding: If actively growing, feed lightly with diluted houseplant fertilizer in spring and summer; do not overfertilize a leaf-only plant.
• Repotting: Keep the small pot until roots actually crowd it. Move only one pot size up when needed.
• Propagation: Hoya vines are propagated from cuttings with a stem node. A single heart leaf without a node does not reliably make new shoots.

Pet safety

Hoya is generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs, though it is best to discourage chewing any houseplant.
