Hoya curtisii 'Thailand Form'

Hoya curtisii 'Thailand Form' is a miniature trailing species with tiny, spade-shaped green leaves marked with silver speckling. The foliage sits densely along fine stems, forming a tight mat or cascading curtain over the edge of the pot. Flowers are small, white to cream with pale yellow centres and a warm sweet fragrance.

The plant grows well in warm, bright indoor conditions with filtered light and a lightly drying cycle. Its fine roots appreciate an airy mix and a consistent watering rhythm. Regular feeding during the warmer months supports compact growth and flowering.
