Plant Know-How: Hoya macrophylla variegata
Hoya macrophylla variegata is a newer-to-us Hoya that we are so excited to have! While Hoya macrophylla variegata may be a little harder to find than some of the more common Hoya that doesn't mean it's anymore difficult to care for. One of the reasons why Hoya macrophylla variegata is easy to care for are its thick, succulent-like leaves. These leaves allow Hoya macrophylla variegata to retain water, meaning it can go for longer period of times in-between watering than some other plants. This is great for beginners who are still learning when to water their plants or for seasoned plant parents who want a plant they don't have to worry about. We love this Hoya and think you will too! We've compiled all of the care info here you'll need for success with your own Hoya macrophylla variegata!
CARE TIPS:
Light: Hoya macrophylla variegata does best in bright indirect light. While it may be grown in medium indirect light it will likely never flower and you run the risk of your plant producing all green leaves.
Water: You should allow Hoya macrophylla variegata to go almost completely dry in-between watering. How often you will need to water will be dependent on how much light your plant is getting. Plants grown in bright indirect light will need to be watered more frequently than those in lower light.
