Hoya Palok Mountain SS002 Care & Details
Origin: Native to Palok, Gayo Lues, Aceh, Indonesia.
Leaves: Long, narrow, lance-shaped leaves with pronounced, pointed tips and a graceful, slightly pendulous appearance. The foliage is medium to dark green with visible lighter green venation that creates a subtly quilted texture across the leaf surface. The leaves appear moderately thick and somewhat succulent, helping the plant retain moisture between waterings while giving it the durable, glossy look prized by Hoya collectors.
Flowers: Blooms are produced from persistent flower spurs (peduncles), a hallmark of Hoyas. Specific flower size, color, fragrance, and bloom longevity for SS002 have not been formally documented.
Growth Rate: Moderate-growing when provided with bright light, warmth, and consistent care.
Watering: Allow the potting mix to partially dry between waterings. Water thoroughly, then let excess moisture drain away.
Light Requirements: Prefers bright, indirect light. For indoor growing, it has performed well approximately 8 inches below double Barrina T5 grow lights running 14 hours per day. Barrina T5 lights: https://amzn.to/43bgSLu
