This Heart-Shaped Hoya (Hoya kerril) comes in a 4” pot.
This plant is a climbing vine. Thick, succulent type, heart-shaped leaves grow on a vine. These vines can reach a trialing length of 13ft long! Though it is very slow-growing, doing so will take years.
We recommend our Rainforest Substrate. Our substrate contains 14 all-natural ingredients that will provide all of the organic materials that will jump-start this plant and give it all the nutrients it needs, along with providing what is needed by the clean-up crew.
With Pets: It is pet safe and will make a wonderful addition to your rainforest reptiles and amphibians. When planting in your animals' enclosure we recommend pairing it with our BioActive Supply Rainforest Substrate. Our substrate contains 14 all-natural ingredients that will provide all of the organic materials that will jump-start this plant and give it all the nutrients it needs, along with providing what is needed by the clean-up crew.
Native To: This fern originally comes from South East Asia.
Lighting: This plant prefers temperatures 65°-80°. This plant grows well in bright direct light.
Hydration: This Hoya likes to live in humid conditions of 40% or more. Making sure to mist your plant when you mist your animal will provide the humidity needed. Hoya do not like their roots to get soggy, or for their substrate to be moist all of the time. Provide well-draining soil. I find that when the top layer of substrate is dry- it's time to water.
Important note:
If you will be using this plant in a vivarium setting with animals, we recommend that all of the soil the plant comes with being washed off prior to placing the new plant in your vivarium. That way you will not accidentally bring any unwanted invertebrates into your setup.
Cold Weather: If you live where the weather will be cold and frosty upon arrival, we recommend contacting us in advance so we can add a heat pack to your shipment. If you choose not to add the heat pack and your plant arrives damaged from the weather, no refund will be given.
