Hoya Crassipetiolata

Hoya crassipetiolata has oblong pointed leaves that are medium green with dark green veins and leaf edge. They are quick growing and excellent climbers. You will see their new growth quickly wrapping around a trellis or whatever the vine touches! Their foliage grows in pairs along a main stem and can blush red or purple when given some direct sun. Mature plants bloom in summer, producing round mounds of star-shaped flowers. Most hoya blooms have a sweet smell, but the Crassipetiolata is one of the weaker scented flowers.
>>FUN FACT They have an unique flower cluster that produces yellow to peach, waxy, star-shaped flowers, where most hoya blooms are pink or white.

Bloom: Mature plants will bloom in summer from small shoots off the stem called a peduncle
