HOYA LATIFOLIA

This hoya gets really big leaves. Some people call this hoya 'dinner plate hoya' because the leaves get so big and round that they resemble a plate you eat off of. The leaves can get some splashes. The flowers are also very beautiful. They are all white or off-white. You usually see many flowers per umbel and the cluster resembles a big ball as seen in the pictures. This hoya is not a fast grower, but eventually it can get big and needs a lot of space. It is very easy to grow and flower. You can see flowers during the warmer weather and they are fragrant. It likes shade/filtered light and good drainage. Keep above 50° F, okay to bring inside during the winter time. Very impressive hoya with beautiful leaves and flowers that is good for beginners.
