Its unique characteristics make it a must-have for enthusiasts and novices alike, offering both aesthetic appeal and a story of resilience.

 

Special Care Note: While the Hoya elliptica boasts of its hardiness compared to other varieties of Hoya elliptica, it's essential to understand its sensitive nature during transitions. This species, like a few rare gems, can be a finicky shipper. It may not immediately adapt to new environments and could shed a few leaves during transit or as it acclimates to its new home. This is a natural process and is no cause for alarm.

By choosing to add the Hoya elliptica to your collection, you acknowledge its unique characteristics. Purchasing this plant means you understand and accept that you might experience some leaf loss during its initial stages in a new environment.

Care Needs

Bright Light

No barrier between the plant and the light source. Ex: Directly under a grow light, in a sunny window with no curtains or trees.

High Humidity: Above 60%

Will benefit from high humidity care. Will likely require humidifiers, daily misting, grouping with other plants, and more.

Loves Heat: Lowest 70F/21C

This hoya does not do well in cold conditions, so be sure to keep in a greenhouse or other temperature controlled space.

Does Sunstress

This plant has evolved to shift color when exposed to bright sunlight, much like a human getting a tan. This does not harm the plant with proper care.
