6″ Hoya Wayetii

Hoya Wayetii comes to us from thePhilippines where it happily has its way with jungle trees. In our homes in pots, they can grow to 3′ long, but you have to wait a bit for this slow grower. The thin, slightly folded emerald green leaves are 2″ to 4″ long and are shaped like long, pointy green beans. New foliage comes out shiny olive and all leaves are edged in a nice, pine green outline. Needing a little more care than most Hoyas, Wayetii wants to be checked often to ensure that is only watered when almost completely dry. Mature plants will reward you with the most beautiful of Hoya bouquets; a flush of super-fragrant pinkish and burgundy flowers. A little gangly-gawky like a teenager when it does get long, the plant kinda looks like it has a wild shag haircut. A way cool plant.
