Hoya 'Curtisii'

Hoya Curtisii is one of the most endearing miniature Hoyas in any collection. Its tiny, thick, succulent leaves are a soft olive green mottled with silver-grey markings that give each leaf a mottled, almost camouflage-like pattern. It grows in a tight, trailing mat that eventually cascades beautifully over the edge of a pot or shelf. It is slow-growing, long-lived, and one of the most charming small plants you can own.

Good for beginners? Yes. Hoya Curtisii is drought-tolerant, compact, and very forgiving. Its small size makes it easy to place anywhere and its succulent leaves mean it handles missed waterings without drama.

Safe for cats and dogs? Hoya is considered non-toxic to pets.

Light needs: Bright indirect light brings out the best silver mottling and encourages the tightest, most compact growth. It tolerates medium light but the markings become less defined. Avoid very low light.

Care at a glance: Water only when the soil is completely dry. As a succulent-leaved Hoya it prefers underwatering. Feed monthly in spring and summer with a diluted fertilizer. Do not remove old flower spurs — they bloom again from the same points.
