Big Thick Heart-Shaped Leaves
Hoya kerrii
These are a very large-leafed vining hoya. The vines go sprawling for 3 or 4 feet before they start developing these heart-shaped leaves. I think I will invent a common name for this plant: Hearty. Thank you and good night.
If I do some googling, I see that others have already called it the Sweetheart Plant, even Wax Hearts, and most touching of all the Valentine Hoya. Oh, the humanity. Maybe we should hold these back at the nursery and not put them out ’til February. Or at least wait until Halloween.
I photoshopped out the wire-hangers from the hanging basket they’re in. Can you tell?
