Hoya sigillatis 'Borneo - Wide Leaf'
Hoya sigillatis 'Borneo - Wide Leaf' is a regional form of sigillatis characterised by thicker, slightly broader leaves densely marked with silver mottling over a green background. The foliage is narrow-elliptic to lance-shaped and hangs along fine, vining stems. Flowers are orange to reddish with deeper centres, produced in small clusters.
The species prefers bright filtered light to maintain the silver patterning and grows best in warm, stable conditions with a lightly drying cycle. Its finer roots favour an airy, free-draining mix, and regular feeding during the warmer months supports steady growth and flowering.
Key Characteristics
- Growth habit: Slender, trailing or climbing stems
- Leaf features: Narrow to medium leaves heavily mottled with silver, slightly broader than typical sigillatis forms
- Flowers: Orange to reddish blooms in small rounded clusters
- Fragrance: Light scent when warm
- Pot size supplied: 100 mm or 80 mm depending on batch; plant size remains consistent
- Growth speed: Moderate in warm, bright environments
- Skill level: Intermediate - prefers bright light, stable warmth and a free-draining mix
Growing Conditions
- Light: Bright, indirect light; some soft morning sun can enhance silver mottling.
- Water: Allow most of the mix to dry between waterings; fine roots benefit from a consistent rhythm.
- Temperature: Best between 18-30 °C with steady warmth.
- Humidity: Moderate humidity supports foliage and flowering.
- Potting mix: Chunky, airy and free-draining with bark and perlite.
- Fertiliser: Light feeding during warmer months encourages active growth.
