Hoya rotundiflora - H147

Hoya rotundiflora is a distinctive species with thick, almost rectangular green leaves that are flat and slightly notched at the tips. The foliage is succulent-like and sits in pairs along the stems, creating a very regular, geometric look. Flowers are white to cream, often with a soft pink tone, and are carried in neat clusters.

The plant prefers bright filtered light, warm conditions and a lightly drying cycle. Its thick, compact leaves favour an airy, free-draining mix and steady conditions. Regular feeding during the warmer months supports slow but steady growth and flowering.
