Hoya ariadna

Hoya ariadna is a cultivated form with medium green leaves often carrying fine speckling or lighter markings, depending on clone. The foliage is firm with a smooth surface, and the plant develops a moderate vining habit that can climb or trail. Flowers are usually pink-toned with deeper centres, produced in rounded clusters with a sweet scent.

The plant performs well in bright filtered light, warm temperatures and a lightly drying cycle. It adapts easily to indoor humidity when planted in an airy mix. Regular feeding in the warmer months supports vine growth and flowering.
