Hoya crassipetiolata is a tropical vine from Vietnam, popular among houseplant enthusiasts for its easygoing nature and striking looks. Its leaves are thick and glossy, with a medium green color and bold, darker green veins that catch the eye. Some varieties, like the 'Splash,' even feature silver speckles for extra flair. When grown in bright light, the foliage can pick up hints of red and purple.
As the plant matures, it puts out clusters of delicate, star-shaped flowers in the warmer months. These blooms are waxy, creamy white or pale yellow, with centers that may be white or pink. The flowers have a subtle, sweet fragrance—less intense than some other Hoyas, but still a pleasant addition. Whether you let it climb or trail, Hoya crassipetiolata brings both charm and easy care to indoor spaces.
