How to Care for Your Hoya 'Sweetheart Variegated'

This succulent-like Hoya prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vivid variegation. Let the soil dry out completely before watering, and use a well-draining cactus or succulent mix. The Hoya kerrii grows very slowly, especially when sold as a single leaf, but with time and proper care, it can develop into a vining plant.

Avoid overwatering and cold drafts. No need for misting — this plant prefers dry air conditions and does best in average room humidity.
