Introducing the stunning Hoya Kerrii known for its heart-shaped succulent leaves. This trailing Hoya kerrii plant with heart-shaped leaves is a thoughtful and easy-to-care-for plant; ideal for anniversaries, Valentine's Day, or any occasion to express love and growth.  

Hoya kerrii has thick, fleshy waxy leaves that are typically bright green on one side and pale green on the other. They can vary in size, with some leaves being small and others growing quite large. 

Native to Asia, this compact Hoya kerrii plant is known for its tropical succulent vines that can grow up to 13 feet long, making it a popular choice for small indoor spaces or hanging baskets.  


Hoya kerrii has several interesting varieties, including Hoya kerrii variegated. Unlike this trailing Hoya kerrii, the particular Hoya heart plant variety stays as a single-leaf Hoya kerrii, adding a touch of charm and symbolism to any space.

It's a symbol of love and affection, making it a popular choice as a gift for loved ones. 

The Hoya kerrii
flowers bloom during the summer with a cluster of small, star-shaped blooms.

The Hoya kerrii blooms are typically fragrant and come in shades of white or pink. While this lush hoya kerrii can bloom, it may take 2-3 years for it to reach maturity and produce flowers.

If you haven't noticed any bloom, here are a few tips to speed up the process.

Pro Tip

Keeping hoya root-bound encourages the plant to focus its energy on flowering rather than growing new foliage. This can result in more frequent and abundant blooms, making for a visually stunning and healthy plant. Ensure your hoya receives several hours of direct sunlight daily and avoid overwatering, as it can cause the soil to become too damp, hindering the blooming process.

The Hoya Kerrii is a popular plant known for its heart-shaped leaves. Also popular for valentines and relationships is the single heart leaf version that comes in two variations: the solid green Single Heart Hoya Kerrii and the variegated Single Heart Hoya Kerrii, both stunning additions to any plant collection.

Interestingly, both the single-heart and variegated single-heart Hoya Kerrii are actually the same plant. At Planet Desert we take cuttings from the original plant and cultivate them to produce the single-heart-shaped leaf that people love the most. It's amazing how we can create different variations of the same plant through propagation.

Propagation of the Hoya kerrii can be done through stem cuttings. When hoyas are getting ready to sprout new leaves or blooms, they send out long vines that are often bare for a period of time. Unless you are attempting to limit growth, never cut these hoya vines. Eventually, mature plants will start to sprout leaves or flowers.  

Additionally, hoyas put out long vines that are often bare during their preparation for new growth. It's crucial not to cut these vines unless you're trying to control their growth. They serve as an energy source for your Hoya kerrii plant's future growth, and allowing them to flourish ensures a healthy and robust hoya with beautiful foliage or blossoms in due time. It's essential to resist the temptation to trim these Hoya kerrii vines during this period.  

Watering Needs 

When it comes to watering your Hoya kerrii, it's important to find the right balance. For Hoya plants, very little water is needed. You should never oversaturate the soil because their leaves are thick and waxy, which allows them to store plenty of water. Therefore, it's important to keep the moisture in the soil to a minimum.  

Make sure to thoroughly soak the soil, allowing the excess water to drain out completely. It's best to water from the bottom by placing the pot in a tray of water and letting the hoya kerrii absorb the moisture through its roots. This helps prevent water from sitting on the leaves, which can cause rot. 

In the spring and summer, during the growing season, you can water your Hoya heart plants about once every 1-2 weeks or whenever the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. In the cooler months, when your hoya plant is in its resting period, you can reduce the frequency of watering to once every 2-3 weeks.  

For Hoya heart plant growth, it's always better to underwater than to overwater. This Hoya plant is quite resilient and can tolerate a bit of drought, but it's sensitive to excessive moisture. So, keep an eye on the soil moisture and adjust your watering schedule accordingly.  

Remember to keep an eye on the leaves to determine if your hoya sweetheart plant needs water; if they are still full, then it doesn't, but if they are thinner and slightly wrinkled, then it's time for a good drink.

Light Requirements  

For indoor growing, the Hoya kerrii tolerate bright, indirect light. Place it near a south-facing window where it can receive plenty of filtered sunlight throughout the day. Avoid exposing your Hoya kerrii plant to direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.

If you notice that the leaves are turning yellow or pale, it might be an indication that your hoya plant needs more bright light. If you lack natural light, you can consider supplementing with artificial grow lights to provide the necessary brightness.

When growing the Hoya hearts trailing plant outdoors, it thrives in partial shade. Too much direct light can be too intense for the mature plant, especially during the hottest parts of the day. Morning or late afternoon sun is ideal. If you live in a region with intense sunlight, providing some protection, such as a sheer curtain or shade cloth, can help filter the light and prevent leaf burn.

Remember, your Hoya kerrii leaves will be a vivid dark green if they receive enough sunlight. The Hoya plant will stop growing and develop thin, undernourished leaves if not provided with enough light. So, avoid dark areas or shady places to keep this hoya kerrii succulent heart healthy.  

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs  

Hoya kerrii prefers a sandy, well-drained soil mix, as excess moisture can promote root and stem rot. Planet Desert specializes in succulents and has a specialized succulent potting soil that includes an organic substrate with mycorrhizae to help with the growth of a healthy root system to help your Hoya heart succulents thrive. As an okay alternative, you can create your own well-draining potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil for the hoya plant.  

The Hoya kerrii doesn't require a lot of fertilizer, but a little boost can certainly help it grow and bloom. During the growing season, which is typically spring, you can feed your trailing plant with a balanced (5-10-5), water-soluble NPK fertilizer to encourage flowering. Dilute the fertilizer to half or quarter strength and apply it once a year.

During the cooler months, when your hoya kerrii is in its resting period, you can reduce or even stop fertilizing altogether. This allows the Hoya kerrii to take a break and prepare for new growth in the following season.

Remember, it's always better to under-fertilize than to over-fertilize your Hoya kerrii. Too much fertilizer can cause salt buildup in the soil, which can harm the roots. So, follow the recommended guidelines and enjoy watching your plant thrive!

Hardiness Zones & More 

When grown indoors, the Hoya kerrii can tolerate a wide range of temperatures, but it generally prefers warm temperatures between 60°F and 75°F. It's important to avoid exposing the plant to extreme temperature fluctuations or drafts, as they can stress the plant. 

The average household humidity should be sufficient for the plant's growth. However, if you live in a particularly dry climate or your home has low humidity, you can increase the humidity around the plant by using a humidifier, placing a tray of water nearby, or misting the leaves with water. These methods can help create a more favorable environment for your Hoya kerrii.

If you are living in USDA zones 10–12, you can grow your Hoya kerrii outdoors year-round. Just make sure not to let them get too chilly; anything below 50 degrees Fahrenheit could spell disaster for your lovey-dovey Hoya heart plant. However, it's important to protect the Hoya kerrii hearts from frost and extreme heat for long periods of time. If you live in a colder climate, you can still enjoy your Hoya kerrii outdoors during the warmer months and bring it indoors when temperatures drop.  

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Hoya kerrii is a delightful houseplant with heart-shaped leaves that symbolize love and affection. Its fleshy, thick leaves and clusters of fragrant, star-shaped flowers make it a charming addition to any indoor space. The Hoya kerrii trailing plant is ideal for hanging baskets, providing greenery and a beautiful display for adding greenery to your space. Its trailing nature allows it to gracefully drape down from hanging baskets, while its vines can be trained to climb up trellises, adding a beautiful touch to your home or garden. Propagation is possible through stem cuttings, and it's worth noting that this young plant is non-toxic to humans and pets.

Whether you're a plant enthusiast or looking for a meaningful gift, the Hoya Kerrii are sure unique vining succulents to bring joy and beauty to your home.

Great Bone for aggressive chewers but watch the wear & tear
I’m extremely happy I found Benebone Bacon Flavor Large Wishbone for my puppy who is an aggressive chewer. As the packaging reads this is a durable nylon. My puppy chewed the bone down to what you see in the picture within 3 days. It’s easy for him to handle. He loves the bacon flavor. He immediately took to it as soon as I gave it to him & off he went to work. I did check with my Veterinarian first to inquire if this was a safe bone & she assured me it was. She did advise to be aware of the wear & tear on the bone & toss when I felt it was time. I honestly wouldn’t of known when. I’m happy I took the time to read the inside of the packaging this bone came in. It referred me to the benebone website which showed pictures of bones-which I attached- that reflect the wear & tear & when it’s time to toss. There are the 3 categories of “Light Wear,” Moderate Wear“ & “Heavy Wear.” You’ll see the written description next to each. This I found very helpful, therefore I wanted to include it in my review, in hope of helping you. By the looks of my current bone it’s in between moderate & heavy wear. The large is costly, I feel, but it 100% occupies my puppy. It’s his favorite “toy.” I’ve only had small shavings come off since he’s chewed it. Nothing major to clean off the couch where he lays. Stuffed toys are a thing of the past now. I’ll continue to buy once it’s time to toss this bone because he loves it so much. I also love that Benebone is Made in the U.S.A.! I definitely recommend! A heads up! If you click on their store on the main page of this bone you’ll find other shapes of the nylon bone as this one. This Benebone won’t disappoint. Take the time to read the packaging. It’s informative & cool!

Very durable and long-lasting, great for strong chewers, gets rid of plaque in older dogs
I have a seven-year-old golden retriever who was never a strong chewer, she liked gnawing on toys and dental “bones” and destroyed shoes and a carpet when she was a puppy but it was never her favorite activity. Then I adopted two puppies of indeterminate breed, but likely Plott Hound and Lab, and they are aggressive chewers and want to chew on everything. I tried all kinds of teething things, as teething seemed to bother them more than any of the other four dogs I’ve had, and all were destroyed quickly, like they were treats instead of supposedly “long-lasting” chew bones. I tried these bones after I happened upon them on Amazon, and I could not be happier. My dogs contentedly gnaw on these for extended periods of time, obviously in heaven as they do so, and sometimes it’s the only way I have time to get anything done. When they were teething these definitely helped them with teething pain, and now they still want to chew on them every day. They can hold them easily and sometimes the puppies even share a bone due to the unique shape. My Golden had lots of plaque and nasty buildup on her teeth and was headed for needing dental cleanings under anesthesia, but now her teeth are sparkling white without a speck of plaque thanks to these. The bones have worn down over the course of eight weeks, but very gradually and not ever in pieces. Yes, the ends become prickly and are definitely not fun to step on, but I don’t let them chew on them outside to reduce them collecting dirt and rinse them every few days to get rid of whatever is on there. I have watched carefully for any signs of irritation in my dogs’ mouths or teeth issues, and have never seen any blood on the bones even after my dogs have determinedly chewed on them for an hour. They LOVE them, and because they are the only bones I have found that last longer than five minutes for my aggressive chewers, hold their attention for an extended period of time, and get rid of all the plaque on my older dog’s teeth, I HIGHLY recommend them.

I love this and so does my dog
I got one of these, to try out on my super chewer pit mix, back in early April, it's now the end of June and she's still chewing it every day, almost all day! It has gotten smaller as she's chewed it but it's not broken or splintered or hurt her teeth! Just make sure to get the right size for the dog. Small dogs maybe the smaller ones but a big girl like mine needs the large or bigger. Idk if she gives a darn about the taste or smell of it but she loves chewing on it, and hasn't felt the need to chew my shoes or wtfe since she got this. I like it so much I got more for my friend who also has a few super chewers and she gives good reports on them too. Her chewer dogs have stopped destroying her house in favor of these chews. Just try not to step on them in the dark, cause that s#!t hurts, BAD! Lol especially if you step on the chewed parts, where its rougher. The attached Pic is showing how badly she's chewed it in almost 4 months! The chewing calms her anxiety and gives her something to focus on when she's too excited, especially late at night. I will be getting more of these for her. even thinking about trying other shapes to see if they hold up as well as the wishbone shape does. She's an adult dog so idk if these would be OK for puppies, as it might Crack their teeth.
