Hoya 'Marmorata-tessera' care

Hoya 'Marmorata-tessera' is a forgiving choice for most rooms, developing an upright clump within its first year.

Give it bright light with no direct midday sun; leaf colour fades noticeably in darker spots. Water little and often, keeping the mix barely moist; the fastest way to lose one is a saucer left full.

Keep it at occasional misting in dry rooms; pot it in coco coir with added bark and refresh the top layer each spring. It is mildly irritating to pets if chewed, so shelve it accordingly.
