The Variegated Hoya Sweetheart And Wax Plant

This variegated Hoya kerrii, commonly known as the Sweetheart or Lucky-heart wax plant, features resilient heart-shaped leaves marked by a distinct splash of yellow. Native to tropical Asia, it relies on a thick, waxy coating to retain moisture and thrives in warm indoor settings.

Unlike typical vining species, this compact offering grows exceptionally slowly into a charming, wood-stemmed display. It serves as a remarkably hardy, low-care ornament perfect for casual gifting or desk decoration. Note that the 4-inch size ships as a single leaf cutting and will not produce trailing growth.
