Now, cuttings from that plant bring its compact red foliage to your collection, with a known source behind the name. Your plant arrives as a rooted cutting with new growth in a 2-inch pot, giving you an established start with a Hoya that adds rich color among your green plants.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHoya lacunosa ‘Scarlet Glow’ – Rooted Cutting Care \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin and provenance\u003c\/strong\u003e: Unsolicited Plant Talks describes ‘Scarlet Glow’ as a mutation of Hoya lacunosa ‘Bruno’ originating at Fendi Hoya Nursery in Indonesia. UPT previously sold this line as ‘Bruno’ (red). These cuttings come from my documented UPT purchase, not ‘Red Bruno’ stock of unknown origin.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeaves\u003c\/strong\u003e: Small leaves with deep red coloring make this an appealing choice for collectors who enjoy colorful foliage without large leaves. UPT reports that its plants maintained their dark red color without supplemental grow lights or unusually intense light, so strong sun is not needed to chase that appearance. Color intensity can vary with growing conditions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clusters of small, fuzzy, cream-to-white flowers carry the familiar, strong lacunosa fragrance, adding another reason to enjoy this plant as it matures.
