Variant

Hoya Incrassata Variegata, also known as the Variegated Hoya incrassata, is a delightful and ornamental variety of Hoya that is cherished for its beautiful foliage and stunning blooms. This cultivar features thick, succulent-like leaves that are centred with creamy white or pale yellow variegation, contrasting beautifully against the deep green center of the leaves. The variegation can become more pronounced when the plant is exposed to bright light.

The flowers are typically pink or white and are attractive not only for their beauty but also for their delicate fragrance./p>

Care Guide

How to take care of Hoya Incrassata Variegata

Sun: Indirect

Hoya Incrassata Variegata should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium - Bright

Hoya Incrassata Variegata will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When mostly dry

Hoya Incrassata Variegata likes the soil to be relatively dry before the next watering. That usually takes about 2 weeks in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but for them, it's always safer to underwater or water when you see signs of lack of water (i.e. droopy, floppy, or soft leaves). Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: Any

Hoya Incrassata Variegata can live in any average home humidity condition and are fairly hardy.

Pet Friendly

You can feel comfortable having Hoya Incrassata Variegata around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants.
