Hoya pachyclada Albo 6226

🦊 Hoya pachyclada ‘Albo’ is a striking variegated wax-plant featuring thick, succulent-like leaves edged with creamy white (albo-margined) contrasting against deep green centres. This compact climber/trailed epiphyte maintains a neat habit and adapts well to bright indoor spots. Its robust foliage provides a bold structural accent in a hanging basket or on a shelf with support.
FLOWER DETAILS
When mature, the plant produces umbels of waxy star-shaped flowers, typically white or pale creamy in colour. The blooms carry a light fragrance and emerge once the plant is well established. Although not as frequent as some species, flowering adds an elegant finishing touch to its variegated foliage.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
☀️ Light: Bright indirect light; variegation will fade or revert in low light—some morning or late afternoon direct sun helps maintain contrast.
💧 Water: Allow most of the mix to dry between waterings; the thick leaves store moisture, so avoid overwatering.
🌡️ Humidity: Prefers moderate to higher humidity (50–70%), though the succulent‐leaf nature gives it some tolerance for normal indoor air.
🪴 Soil: Use an airy, free-draining mix (orchid bark + perlite + coco husk) to ensure roots have good aeration.
🏺 Potting: It grows compactly but may benefit from a hanging pot or small trellis; repot every 2-3 years or when root bound to refresh the mix.
🌱 Growth rate: Moderate; grows steadily but not aggressively; variegated plants often grow more slowly than standard green forms.
🐾 Pet friendly: Generally considered non-toxic but keep vines out of reach of pets.
WHY YOU WILL LOVE IT?
With its bold variegation and succulent-umbrella leaves, this plant brings a real collector-quality look without becoming overwhelmingly large. The contrast of creamy edges on rich green foliage adds visual drama, while its compact, trailing habit makes it an excellent choice for stylish indoor displays.
