The Hoya Fungii is a stunning and resilient species native to the island of Hainan, off the coast of China. This Hoya is known for its ease of care and ability to bloom consistently, making it a favorite among plant enthusiasts. As a medium-strong grower, it requires ample space to thrive as it matures. The large, soft-haired leaves (pubescent) start as a beautiful bronze-green and mature into deep emerald green, while new stems feature a striking bronze-purple hue.
When grown in shade, the leaves become darker, softer, and larger, while in brighter indirect light, they are smaller, firmer, and a lighter green. The Hoya Fungii also produces impressive flower clusters, similar to Hoya Carnosa but larger and fuzzier, with each umbel containing around 60 flowers. Depending on temperature and light, the blooms can range from pure white to rich rose pink, adding vibrant beauty to any space. Though it can withstand light frost, it prefers to be kept above 50Ā°F. The Hoya Fungii is an excellent choice for those seeking a striking, easy-to-grow plant with showstopping flowers!
