You'll fall in love with the Heart Leaf Hoya, its big, green, heart-shaped leaves are sure to win you over! This houseplant will bring all the charm you need, without any of the heartache. 

Hoya is a succulent plant, which stores water in the fleshy leaf. Avoid watering too often, as plants perform best when the soil is allowed to dry between waterings. As such, hoya hearts only need to be watered once every two weeks or so. Water until the soil is saturated and allow any excess water to drain out of the container.

Place plants in a location that receives several hours of bright light each day, either direct sun or bright indirect light.

Huge flowers on thick stems make for an almost cartoon-like appearance. Unsurprisingly butterflies and bees love them for the vast amounts of pollen, we love them for their drought and heat tolerance and showy blooms.
