Hoya rubida - 13cm pot

Hoya rubida is a tropical climbing plant native to the Philippines, admired for its soft green leaves that can take on a reddish tint, especially when exposed to strong light. It produces clusters of small, waxy flowers with a reddish-pink centre, giving it a delicate and decorative appeal. Its unique foliage and charming scent make it a sought-after variety among Hoya enthusiasts and collectors.

Hoyas are a Plantsmith favourite due to their easy-going nature and diversity (not to mention some of the craziest names around). Hoya's are epiphytic plants, meaning they require a well-draining mix in a tighter pot to be happy; only repot in Spring when it is bursting out of its current pot. This plant is semi-tropical, find a warm, bright spot and keep indoors over the cooler months. Keep soil on the dryer side over winter and moist in the warmer months. 

Available in 13cm hanging plastic nursery pots.
