Hoya carnosa 'Madara Snow Angel' | 2-Inch

Hoya carnosa 'Madara Snow Angel' is a stunning collector's cultivar prized for its exceptionally high variegation, giving each leaf a unique, snow-dusted appearance that brightens any plant shelf.

This rooted cutting with new growth in a 2-inch pot offers the opportunity to grow one of the most eye-catching forms of Hoya carnosa from an early stage. While its heavy variegation means it grows more slowly than standard green carnosa, the reward is a living work of art that becomes more impressive with every new leaf.

• Origin: Hoya carnosa is native to East and Southeast Asia, including parts of China, India, Vietnam, Taiwan, Japan, and surrounding regions. 'Madara Snow Angel' is a cultivated variegated selection of Hoya carnosa. For scientific information about Hoya carnosa, see the World Flora Online: https://www.worldfloraonline.org/taxon/wfo-0000893803

• Leaves: Features thick, succulent leaves with dramatic white and cream variegation across the surface. The highly variegated foliage creates a striking snow-splashed appearance that makes every leaf unique while helping the plant stand out in any collection.

• Flowers: Mature plants produce clusters of star-shaped, waxy flowers typical of Hoya carnosa. Blooms are generally pale pink to pinkish-white with contrasting centers and are known for their sweet fragrance. Individual flower clusters can last for several days to weeks under favorable conditions.

• Growth Rate: Slow-growing due to its high level of variegation. New leaves take longer to develop than those of standard green Hoya carnosa, but each leaf is highly ornamental and collectible.

• Watering: Allow the potting mix to dry partially between waterings. Like most Hoyas, it prefers to avoid constantly wet soil and benefits from good drainage.

• Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light. For indoor growing, excellent results have been achieved with the plant positioned about 8 inches below double Barrina T5 lights for approximately 14 hours per day. Adequate light helps maintain strong variegation and healthy growth.

• Ideal Temperature & Humidity: Thrives around 85°F with humidity levels between 70% and 75%. It can adapt to typical indoor conditions, but higher humidity may encourage optimal growth.

• General Hoya Care: Provide a chunky, well-draining potting mix, bright indirect light, and avoid overwatering. For detailed care instructions, visit: https://hoyatreasures.com/pages/caring-for-hoya
