Hoya caudata is prized by enthusiasts for its rugged, almost prehistoric appearance. The variegated form adds a splash of cream or white to the silver-splashed, wavy-edged leaves. When mature, it produces fuzzy, star-shaped flowers that are truly spectacular.

Tips

Avoid overwatering, as this species is sensitive to soggy roots. Provide a trellis or moss pole for the vines to climb. For more tips follow us on Instagram @hiddenseedco
