There are a number of 'Hoya sp. Sulawesi' online, some may have similar foliage but since this particular Hoya has yet to flower for us, we are not comfortable saying it is a specific variety until we can confirm with blooms. We obtained our mother plant as 'Hoya sp. Sulawesi' from Ric Moreir of Ric & Swiffers Hoyas in 2023., searching through his public photos we find similarities with Hoya sp. Sulawesi AP-1043, but it is hard to identify Hoya by foliage alone.
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!
~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. A lot of Hoya are able to rebloom again & again from the same peduncle!
~Feed regularly during the growing season with a low nitrogen fertilizer containing sufficient amounts of phosphorous and potassium.
