Hoya caudata has one of the most unusual flowers in the genus! The leaves of Hoya caudata are elliptical, have a dull sheen, and are olive green with burgundy/brownish spots, mottled with grey. Clusters of white to pale pink blooms are pubescent, with a fringe of long hairs along the edges; and anthers with long, thin, tail-like (caudate) appendages that are raised above a pinkish red to deep rose corona.
Hoyas are mostly epiphytic creeping, twining or vining plants that have a vast array of different leaf shapes, sizes, textures & colors! If provided with the desired conditions Hoyas can bloom, their flowers varying widely species-to-species with many different colors, sizes & even scents!Many Hoya develop purple spots, streaks or patches on the leaves as a response to light exposure. This is commonly referred to as sun stress, is completely natural and normal - sometimes the entire leaf can turn various shades of purple/red. This is not disease and is actually a sign that the plant is healthy.
~Do Not let Hoya sit in excess water. As epiphytes, in the wild they would be growing on tree trunks or branches in the forest understory where they would get most of their water just from dew or moisture in the air.
~Hoya are considerably hardy & tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions, but for the best growth it is recommended to provide higher levels of humidity.
~Do Not remove the peduncles [flower stalks] after your Hoya has finished flowering. Hoya are able to rebloom again & again from the same peduncle!
~Feedregularly duringthe growing season with a low nitrogen fertilizercontaining sufficient amounts of phosphorous and potassium.
My Hoya Caudata arrived in great condition--healthy and pest free! The packaging was unreal! The care the sellers took to make sure it arrived in the best possible condition would have one believing that it was fine crystal being delivered. I truly appreciated the level of care. The image is the plant after 11 days in my home--it is still acclimating to its new environment. I am beyond happy!

Purchased this plant in December, and it arrived in great condition. It is now mid February and the plant is thriving, with stems growing long and new leaves forming. I grown it indoors under light

I bought this hoya for the flower, and was not expecting to care much for the foliage. However, when it arrived, it was so healthy, large and beautiful, it is now among my favorites. If it flowers for me, that is just icing on the cake. It is lovely draped around my trellis.

When I tell you I love this company I mean it, their houseplants never disappoint and the packaging is out of this world. Never a hassle just nice healthy plants every time. Yes I’m a repeat customer and as long as they’re sellers/growers I will keep coming back.

Delivery was delayed a day, the heat pack was cold, and of course it was snowing when the box arrived (sunny and warm the days prior)! The hoya wasn't doing well when I opened the box, but a week later and no issues. She's doing great! Super excited about future flowers!
