Hoya obovata is a charming trailing vine known for its thick, waxy oval leaves, often adorned with silver splashes. Its lush foliage makes it perfect for hanging baskets, terrariums, or mounted displays in bright areas of your home.
🌸 Flowers
Blooms in spherical umbels of tiny star-shaped flowers, typically creamy-white to soft pink with a deep red corona.
Each umbel contains 15–30 flowers, each approximately 5–8 mm wide.
Flowers are lightly fragrant, especially in the evening.
Mature plants often rebloom from existing flower stems, so leave old peduncles intact to encourage new blooms.
