How to care for it

  • Light: bright, indirect light keeps the variegation strong.
  • Water: let the soil dry out completely, then water thoroughly. It stores water in its thick leaves.
  • Soil: a chunky, fast-draining mix in a pot with a drainage hole.
  • Temperature: 60 to 80°F, away from cold drafts.

Common questions

Is it safe for cats and dogs?

Yes. The ASPCA lists hoyas such as the wax plant (Hoya carnosa) as non-toxic to cats and dogs. A pet that eats a lot of any plant may get a mild upset stomach, but it won't be poisoned.

How fast does it grow?

Slowly. Sweetheart hoyas take their time, especially in lower light. Brighter light speeds up growth.

Ships in its nursery pot. Decorative pots in the photos are not included.
