Hoya 'With Vines'
Cultivar: With Vines
Hoya kerrii, often called the Sweetheart Plant, is a beloved tropical succulent distinguished by its thick, waxy, heart-shaped leaves.

It is a low-maintenance indoor favorite that thrives in bright, indirect light.
A slow-growing tropical vining succulent known for its unique, thick, heart-shaped leaves. This vining variety develops into a charming trailing or climbing plant ideal for indoor collections.
