Hoya sigillatis 'Round Leaf' Care & Details
Origin: Hoya sigillatis is native to Borneo and was formally described by botanists in 1991. Hoya sigillatis 'Round Leaf' is a cultivated form selected for its broader, rounder leaves compared to the typical species. Scientific publication: Kleijn, D. & Donkelaar, R. (1991), Blumea 36: 479–483.
Leaves: Features thick, succulent leaves with a distinctive, rounded shape and attractive silver speckling across a green background. The foliage often develops deeper coloration under bright light, creating a dramatic display even when the plant is not in bloom.
Flowers: Produces clusters of small, star-shaped flowers with pink to reddish tones and contrasting centers. Like many Hoyas, the blooms emerge from persistent peduncles and can last for several days to over a week under favorable conditions. Fragrance may vary depending on growing conditions and time of day.
Growth Rate: Moderate grower that rewards consistent care with steadily extending vines and new leaves.
Watering: Allow the potting mix to dry partially between waterings. Water thoroughly when the mix approaches dryness, avoiding constantly wet conditions.
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. This plant thrives when grown about 8 inches below double Barrina T5 lights for approximately 14 hours per day.
Ideal Temperature & Humidity: Performs exceptionally well around 85°F with humidity levels of 70–75%, though it can adapt to typical indoor conditions with proper care.
General Hoya Care: Use a well-draining potting mix, avoid overwatering, provide bright indirect light, and maintain good airflow. For detailed care instructions, visit: https://hoyatreasures.com/pages/caring-for-hoya
