• The Hoya Kerrii is a cute heart shaped leaf cutting commonly known as the Sweetheart Hoya, Valentine Hoya or Sweetheart Succulent. This real live evergreen succulent indoor plant has a charming appearance making it a popular gift for plant lovers on anniversaries or on special occasions in particular Valentine’s Day. NOTE: any decorative pots are not included, it will arrive in a 7cm plastic growing pot.

• The Sweetheart Succulent is pet friendly making it perfect for displaying in a bedroom or living room but is also an ideal desk plant due to its petite stature. This mini houseplant is taken as a cutting from the vining plant and will remain a single leaf the rest of its life.

• This indoor plant prefers to grow in well draining soil and requires at least half a day of bright indirect sunshine. It can cope with full sunlight but too much intense sunlight in particular during the Summer can cause the colouring to fade. It also likes to be kept away from draughty spots and radiators.
• The Hoya Kerrii can go without water for up to 30 days making it ideal for complete beginners. When watering, avoid the leaf and water directly into the soil. It's important not to leave it sitting in water and to only water when the soil has dried out. Water more sparingly during the Winter months and apply feed twice a year, once in Spring and once during the Summer.

• Please note: the decorative pot shown in the images is for illustration purposes only and is not included with the plant.

Watering Water when the top few centimetres of compost begin to dry, then water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain away. Do not leave the plant sitting in standing water, as consistently wet roots can lead to rot. Growth slows in winter, so reduce watering frequency during cooler, darker months.

Best Growing Conditions Grow in bright, indirect light, ideally at around 18-26°C, away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes. Use well-drained soil and make sure excess water can drain freely from the pot. Most houseplants perform best with moderate humidity and should be kept away from strong radiator heat.
