This leaf fell off my hoya about a month ago and I was going to toss it but thought what the heck and put it in water and today I saw a tiny root. So glad I kept it.

Don’t want to be the downer….while it can grow roots and sustain itself, without a node it won’t grow new leaves/vines, unfortunately 👎🏻

It should last a year or two though!

Good to know. Thanks for the info. I will give it a good home till it dies. Lol

Ohhh is this how they keep those heart looking ones alive but then apparently they never grow? You know what I’m talking about??

#### Stephanie svarade den 2025-04-03

Yes I do. I bet that is how they do that but I don't know fir sure
