Hoya Kerrii ‘Variegata’

About:

Hoya kerrii ‘Variegata’ is a slow-growing, semi-succulent plant with heart-shaped, variegated leaves. The leaves are bright green with creamy-yellow or white margins and emerge on vining stems up to 13 feet long. They are up to 4 inches long, up to 3 inches wide and up 0.2 inch thick. It produces globe-shaped flowers, cream-white with rose-purple corona-lobes, in summer.

Flowering season: Summer

Planting Media: Soilrite mix would be a perfect planting medium for all kinds of plants.  If required pebbles (1-1.5cm) can be added to the mix to make sure the planting medium is well drained.

Water: Water thoroughly whenever the surface of soil is dry. Keep the soil moist. With its succulent qualities it’s quite adapt at storing water for longish periods of time between watering. This makes it a hardy and undemanding plant for the most part, of course only providing basic care will result in a surviving rather than thriving plant, so where possible wait until the soil has dried out a little and then water again. This means don’t wait long periods between watering just because you can. Do be careful not to overdo it. The soil should never be saturated or boggy as this will lead to rotting. Take special care if the pot it comes in has no drainage holes

Sunlight: This plant will need a reasonably light room in order to actually grow, although it will still get by even if you pick a shadier spot, very dark places need to be avoided though. Sunlight is acceptable too, so in reality you could position it almost anywhere in your home or office. It prefers full indirect bright sunlight.

NOTE: Hoya kerrii variegata needs more light than the regular.
