An elegant epiphytic vine from Southeast Asia, admired for its slender, trailing stems and clusters of small, star-shaped white flowers with a delicate fragrance. Its refined appearance and easy-care nature make it a prized addition to any Hoya collection.
-
Light: Bright, indirect light promotes healthy growth and flowering. Tolerates some morning direct sun but avoid harsh midday exposure.
-
Temperature: Warm to intermediate conditions, 65–85°F (18–29°C). Protect from temperatures below 55°F (13°C) and cold drafts.
-
Humidity: Prefers 50–70% relative humidity. Adapts reasonably well to average indoor humidity but benefits from occasional misting or a nearby humidifier.
-
Watering: Allow the substrate to dry out between waterings. Hoyas are susceptible to root rot — use a fast-draining, airy mix and never let roots sit in standing water.
Additional Notes:
Leaves are narrow, lance-shaped, and slightly succulent in texture. Flowers emerge in umbel clusters and may carry a light, sweet scent. Avoid removing spent peduncles, as new blooms develop from the same spurs each season.
