Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Hoya curtisii is a miniature, trailing variety with tiny, olive green, spade shaped leaves covered in silvery flecks. Plant Hoya curtisii in a hanging basket or raised container to take advantage of the gorgeous, trailing stems. It prefers a warm, humid environment with bright indirect light. Fertilize, mist and water regularly, reducing water in winter. Allow the soil to dry out between watering. Keep your Hoya above 55°F, or its growth might be stunted.

This tiny creeper is one of the smallest hoyas we grow with ½" heart-shaped leaves accented by silver mottling. Its habit is dense with a clinging nature that covers the container like a mat. Perfect for use as a ground cover in the pots of larger plants.
