Hoya burtoniae 'Variegata' is a rare and visually striking cultivar of the beloved wax plant family, known for its softly fuzzy leaves with creamy-white or pink variegation along the edges. Native to the Philippines, this tropical epiphyte features small, almond-shaped leaves that grow along long, trailing stems—making it a popular choice for hanging planters and shelf displays. When grown in bright, indirect light, the variegation becomes more pronounced, and the leaves may develop reddish or blush tones. In the right conditions, it produces clusters of small, star-shaped, fragrant flowers that are deep pink to maroon.
This variegated Hoya thrives in a warm, humid environment with well-draining soil and minimal watering, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Like most Hoyas, it appreciates consistent care and bright light, but it’s relatively low-maintenance and forgiving. As a slower grower compared to its non-variegated counterpart, Hoya burtoniae 'Variegata' rewards patience with its unique foliage and elegant growth habit. It's ideal for collectors or anyone looking to add a touch of subtle colour and texture to their indoor jungle.
My first order with this company couldn't be any better.
