Hoya Curtsii Collection No 37 9cm Pot

The Hoya curtsii, a charming and compact species within the Hoya genus, is beloved for its small, heart-shaped leaves that form dense, trailing vines. The leaves are adorned with subtle speckles of silvery-white variegation, giving the plant a delicate, almost whimsical appearance.

Native to Southeast Asia, this slow-growing epiphytic Hoya thrives in bright, indirect light, which encourages healthy growth and vibrant foliage. While it can adapt to moderate light, optimal lighting conditions are key for encouraging its delicate, star-shaped flowers to bloom. These flowers are typically pale green or white with a pinkish center and emit a light, sweet fragrance.

The Hoya curtsii prefers a well-draining soil mix, such as one designed for succulents or epiphytes, and should be watered when the topsoil feels dry. Its semi-succulent leaves store water, making it more tolerant of occasional under-watering than over-watering. High humidity levels mimic its natural habitat and are beneficial for its growth. During the growing season, feeding it with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks will support healthy foliage and potential flowering.

With its cascading vines, charming foliage, and ease of care, the Hoya curtsii is a delightful addition to any indoor plant collection, ideal for hanging baskets or trailing elegantly from shelves. Its unique aesthetic brings a touch of natural beauty to any space.
