Hoya sulawesiana
Specimen IDPJ-HOYAHOYA7147
HK$538.00
Named after the Indonesian island where it was first discovered, Hoya sulawesiana is one of those botanical treasures that still surprises even experienced collectors. Its round, waxy leaves are a deep, lustrous green with subtle silvery flecking that catches the light beautifully — understated from a distance, extraordinary up close. And when it blooms? Clusters of perfectly formed pale star flowers with a fragrance that quietly fills a room.
Relatively rare in cultivation compared to mainstream Hoyas, the sulawesiana is a genuinely rewarding find for anyone who appreciates something a little less common. It trails and climbs naturally, looks brilliant in a hanging pot, and is tougher than it looks once it’s settled in.
Care Guide
- Light: Bright, indirect light. Tolerates moderate light but blooms more generously in brighter spots.
- Watering: Classic Hoya rule — let it dry between waterings. Very forgiving of the occasional missed session.
- Humidity: 50–70%. Comfortable in most indoor environments.
- Temperature: 18–28°C. A classic tropical comfort zone.
- Soil: Light, fast-draining mix. Add extra perlite to standard potting soil.
