Hope he’s okay. Spur of the moment grocery store buy. Just couldn’t pass up $13!

Could this be a Kerrii Splash?

I recommend cutting off the yellow leaf. The staff probably overwatered it which can lead to bacteria, fungus or viral infections. Check the soil for excessive moisture especially at the bottom. 🪴🍀

Thanks! I wondered if the yellow leaf should go or I should wait it out. Cutting now!

Cutting it off as soon as possible is probably good to avoid rot and let the plant direct energy twords the leaves that are still thriving

Most heart Hoyas or Hoya Kerii are literally just sold as the leaves, meaning there is no option for the plant to produce new growth and eventually they just die because they grow old or are overwatered.

It’s sad really. That’s why I was so excited about this one. Several leaves and even a couple of new ones coming in.

I hope it can push out some stems and keep thriving!!
