🌿🤍💚 Hoya wayetii ‘Variegata’ (HOY-yah why-ET-ee-eye) 💚🤍🌿
The variegated Hoya wayetii is a trailing beauty with long, narrow leaves edged in creamy white to pink, creating a ribbon-like effect along each vine. New growth often blushes with soft pink before maturing to green and cream, giving it a constantly changing palette. Its waxy, succulent-like leaves make it both striking and tough—a perfect mix of beauty and resilience.
💡 Care Tips:
☀️ Light – Thrives in bright, indirect light; some gentle direct sun helps bring out pink tones in the variegation.
💧 Water – Prefers a “soak and dry” routine. Allow soil to dry most of the way before watering again.
🌡️ Humidity – Enjoys average to higher humidity, but thick leaves make it fairly tolerant of drier homes.
🌱 Growth – A trailing or hanging plant that can stretch 2–4 feet long; leaves usually reach 3–5 inches.
📊 Difficulty: Beginner-friendly
🐾 Pet Safety: Non-toxic to cats and dogs 🐶🐱
🌟 Collector’s Tip:
Like other Hoyas, Wayetii Variegata can reward patience with clusters of star-shaped, fragrant blooms—but only if it’s mature and slightly rootbound. Don’t repot too often, and resist cutting off the spent flower spurs—they’ll bloom again from the same spot!

Would you like me to also highlight how this one compares to Hoya kentiana variegata (another narrow-leafed, trailing Hoya it’s often mistaken for)?
