Description
Hoya australis ssp. tenuipes 'Lisa' is a stunning evergreen variety with striking variegated foliage. Its leaves feature a marbled mix of green, cream, and pink hues, making it a beautiful ornamental choice for any indoor or outdoor collection. When in bloom, this cultivar produces clusters of fragrant, white star-shaped flowers with pink or red centres, adding a delightful pop of colour. It thrives in bright, indirect light and is ideal for pots, hanging baskets, or climbing supports.
This Hoya prefers well-draining, open soil and benefits from moderate watering, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering during Makuru (winter) to prevent overwatering. Its compact growth habit and unique foliage make it a low-maintenance yet eye-catching addition to your Perth garden or home.
