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.

An action-packed dark romantasy
Format: Kindle
I loved this book! Queen of Roses is an Arthurian-inspired dark romantasy that is the first book in the Blood of Fae series. The story follows Morgan, the princess of Camelot who is rumored to be part fae. Fueled by prejudiced hatred and a mistrust of fae blood, Morgan’s abusive father strips her of her birthright and hands it to her half-brother, Arthur. Instead of becoming queen, Morgan is commanded to join the temple of the goddesses when she comes of age. However, Arthur turns into a psychopathic, power-hungry, fae-hating king as he ages. He develops malevolent plans and commands Morgan to find an ancient weapon with legendary power. Although Morgan is wary of Arthur’s intentions, she embraces the opportunity to go on a journey and potentially change her fate. The story picks up from there and we follow Morgan on her quest to find the ancient relic. It’s full of high stakes adventure, mystery, tension, banter, forced proximity, hidden magic, self discovery, and betrayal. This first installment of the series intricately develops the world building and character development. There’s little romance in this book, but it is evident that it is a slow burn that will continue to develop throughout the remainder of the series. Overall, I loved the world building, the epic fantasy, Morgan’s journey of self discovery, and all of the twists and turns that set the stage for the future installments. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Arthurian Fae Quest…say less.
Format: Kindle
A fae centered Arthurian tale unlike any I’ve read so far. The author did a great job at descriptive world building, with scenes easily playing out in my minds eye. There was plenty of action, suspense, and even a touch of horror. An enemies to lovers, slow burn romance, a quest, with plot twist and turns aplenty. There was a love triangle, which I’m not usually a fan of but, it played out well in this story line. The FMC, Morgan Pendragon, was so blatantly naïve, yet I typically expect as much in a ‘book one’ of a series, especially one that features a fairly sheltered princess. I was happy to read that in spite of this, she still showed a strong sense of morals, fire, and spine. Now our MMC? Kairos Draven, aka Void’s Edge. Oh, how I’m a sucker for a smoking’ hot grumpy warrior alpha with a witty mouth, and a strong sense of “touch her and die” attitude, so you know who held all my cards. That ending? Just made me swoon all the harder. Now add a battlecat that rivals the size of a horse…and well Ms. Briar Boleyn you have well and truly stolen my heart. I’m excited to see where the story goes from here, and follow along to see more of the characters growth. I went into this story fairly blind, and I think I enjoyed it all the more because of it. Once the story got going, it had me in an absolute chokehold and it was difficult to put down.

Not a bad start
Format: Kindle
3 stars Thank you Netgalley and Briar Boleyn for the ARC! A camelot/king Arthur retelling with fae. I was hooked by the idea of this book immediately and was eager to jump into this world. • slow burn • enemies to lovers • who did this to you Morgan Pendragon watched her mother die by her father's hand when she was just eight years old, hiding under the bed. Morgan is believed to have the tainted blood of the fae in her veins and is cast aside so that her fathers illegitimate son, Arthur, can become the king. She's seen his cruel treatment of the fae firsthand, so when he sends her on a journey to find a fae weapon she seizes the opportunity to do more with her life. Along the way, she finds more than she could have imagined. I don't know a whole lot about King Arthur and Camelot but I had a lot of fun with this story! The plot has some similar tropes to popular romantasy books (From blood and ash) but there's enough originality here that it doesn't feel like I'm reading a copy. I liked how the fae were different in appearance than what is typical in most fantasy books I've read. In this book they have blue hair, violet skin and a wide range of other characteristics. I thought that the world building was easy to follow and I could easily immerse myself into this world. After reading the blurb I kept wondering when she was going to go on the journey to find Excalibur and it doesn't happen until around the 45% mark. The story is a bit slow at times but starts to pick up once they begin their journey to find Excalibur. The John Wick style Inn was a fun concept that I enjoyed reading about. There are a lot of similarities to this and FBAA and I would have liked to have it be a little more different, but I'm hoping book two will have the story turn into something of its own. Overall I enjoyed reading this story and I'm looking forward to reading book two especially after that ending.

Fallen Angels, fae, vampires, oh my!
Format: Kindle
Rating: 4.5 | Spice: 2 (but a good slow-burn) • Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf • I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆 We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger! • Emily, thank you for writing this awesome novel and I cannot wait to devour Book 2, Blood So Brutal! 😍 • Happy reading, my lovelies! xo

“My heart bows to you and you only, Huntress.”
Format: Kindle
3.5 🌟 This book popped up in my KU recommended reading suggestions and the synopsis sounded like what I was in the mood for. I'm so glad I took a chance on it. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about it and ended up really liking it. I love when this happens. The main characters are likeable and I easily found myself rooting for them. There is a mystery element to each of their backstories that I enjoyed watching unfold and can't wait to get more of. Wolf, in particular, has me fixated. Love him. I found this to be an entertaining, addictive read with a plot that moves along at a good pace. It reads so easily I found myself very reluctant to put it down. Lots of twists and turns and the angst is there. A good set up for the next book to come, for sure. My issues with this book....the dialogue feels a bit juvenile at times and there is a repetitive over use of a particular word phrasing that I found myself giving the ole eye-roll to. There are, without a doubt, some pretty cliche moments that gave me a bit of the cringe. I think this could've certainly 100% benefited from more depth regarding the world building. Perhaps the world building was sacrificed to keep the pacing quick? Just a guess. Also, the lack of consistency of character for the FMC was really evident and so she feels quite illogical at times. Overall, this was a fun and enjoyable read that hit the spot well enough for me. That ending certainly has me impatiently pining for book 2!
