Hoya Wayetii Variegated

Hoya Wayetii Variegated

Hoya Wayetii Variegated is a stunning cultivar known for its long, slender leaves with creamy white or deep pink inner variegation. New growth often emerges with blush or bright pink tones, fading to soft green as the leaves mature, creating a dynamic and ever-changing color display. The plant’s trailing vines and narrow, arching foliage give it a graceful, architectural form that looks beautiful in hanging baskets or cascading from shelves.

This indoor plant is easy to care for and has slow to moderate growth, making it ideal for indoor gardeners who appreciate low-maintenance beauty. When mature and given the right conditions, it can produce clusters of maroon, star-shaped flowers with a rich, sweet fragrance. Even without blooms, the foliage alone makes it a standout plant in any collection.

A collector’s favorite, Hoya Wayetii Variegated brings together striking leaf form, rare coloration, and ease of care. Whether you’re just starting your Hoya collection or adding to an existing one, this variety offers year-round visual interest with minimal effort.

care instructions

Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain vibrant variegation; some morning sun is beneficial, but avoid harsh direct sunlight.
Soil Needs: Requires a chunky, well-draining potting mix; use a blend of orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir or peat.
Watering: Water thoroughly when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry; avoid waterlogging to prevent root rot.
Humidity: Tolerates average household humidity but prefers slightly higher levels; mist occasionally or place near a humidifier.
Fertilizing: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.
Pruning: Prune lightly to shape and control growth; avoid removing flower spurs, as they produce recurring blooms.
Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years or when roots become crowded; refresh potting mix to support healthy growth.
