Hoya Sweetheart is one of the most iconic novelty plants in the houseplant world. Its single, perfectly heart-shaped leaf is thick, waxy, and a rich jade green — an unmistakable shape that makes it the most gifted plant for Valentine's Day, anniversaries, and anyone you love. It is nearly indestructible, extremely slow-growing, and lasts for years with minimal care. A living, lasting symbol of affection.Good for beginners? Yes. As a single-leaf cutting it is one of the hardest plants to kill. It requires very little water, tolerates a range of light conditions, and asks almost nothing in return.Safe for cats and dogs? Hoya is considered non-toxic to pets.Light needs: Bright indirect light keeps the leaf most firm and healthy. It tolerates medium light well. Avoid very low light which can cause the leaf to soften and lose its firm, waxy texture.Care at a glance: Water only when the soil is completely dry. This is a single-leaf cutting and will not grow into a full vine — it is meant to be enjoyed as a beautiful, long-lasting ornamental. Feed occasionally during spring and summer. Makes a perfect desk or windowsill plant.Ships fresh from one of our two greenhouse locations in a nursery pot. Covered by our 30-Day Plant Guarantee — if it arrives damaged, we replace it.
