Hoya 'DS-70 Variegated'-406
🪲 Each plant is carefully treated against unwanted pests.
Note: Leaves with strong variegation are naturally more delicate and may be more prone to browning or slight damage during shipping
The Hoya ‘DS-70 Variegated’—also known as Hoya bilobata variegata, is a stunning and rare variety admired for its compact growth and thick, succulent leaves. Each leaf is beautifully splashed with creamy variegation that contrasts with its deep green background. This slow-growing epiphytic vine produces clusters of fragrant, star-shaped pink-red flowers when mature, making it a true collector’s favorite.
Care:
🌤️ Light: Bright, indirect light to maintain vibrant variegation.
💧 Water: Allow the soil to dry between waterings. Avoid overwatering.
🌿 Humidity: Prefers medium to high humidity.
🌱 Soil: Use a well-draining mix suitable for Hoyas (orchid bark, perlite, coco chips).
🌡️ Temperature: Ideal between 18–28 °C. Protect from cold drafts.
Growth habit: Trailing or climbing; excellent for hanging baskets or trellises.
Shipping
All plants are shipped with their roots wrapped in Sphagnum Moss, and plastic wrap to retain moisture for the root system. Foliage is then wrapped in a soft material, and then the whole plant is wrapped in isolation paper to secure the plant from movement in the box. Upon arrival to your home, check the roots for any signs of damage or rot. If rot appears, trim the affected roots with clean scissors or pruning shears, and plant into the new pot with the above specified growing media. We recommend waiting a day to water your new plant after repotting, as this will reduce the risk of root rot. Please note that yellowing or browning leaves could occur in transit.
