Hoya kerrii is famed for its charming heart-shaped succulent leaves, making it a beloved gift plant and collector’s favorite. With warm, tropical origins, it grows as a slow but steady vine, well suited to hanging pots, windowsills, or trellises.
🌸 Flowers
When mature, it blooms in clusters of star-shaped flowers, typically white to pale pink, each with a deep red to burgundy center.
Each umbel contains up to 25 tiny blossoms, approximately 5–8 mm in size.
The flowers are delicately fragrant, often releasing a sweet scent during bloom.
Reblooming from the same flower stem is common—avoid removing old peduncles for repeat flowers.
🌞 Care Guide
Need | Recommendation |
---|---|
Light | Bright, indirect light; a few hours of gentle morning or evening sun is ideal. |
Watering | Allow topsoil to dry thoroughly before watering; tolerates drought due to succulent leaves. |
Soil | Use a chunky, well-draining mix such as orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. |
Humidity | Prefers moderate humidity; adapts well to indoor environments. |
Temperature | Ideal range: 16–28 °C (60–82 °F); protect from cold drafts. |
