- Botanical Name: Hoya curtisii
- Common Names: Fung Wax Flower, Tiny-Leaf Porcelain Plant
- Description: Hoya curtisii is a charming and compact trailing plant known for its tiny, heart-shaped leaves with silver mottling. Native to Southeast Asia, this slow-growing hoya is perfect for hanging baskets, terrariums, or as a tabletop plant. Its delicate vines produce fragrant star-shaped flowers in optimal conditions, making it a favorite among plant enthusiasts.
- Watering Needs: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Water sparingly, as overwatering can lead to root rot. During active growth, slightly increase watering frequency.
- Preferred Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels (50-80%). It appreciates occasional misting or being placed near a humidifier in dry environments.
- Sun Exposure: Prefers bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct morning sun but avoid harsh afternoon sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
- Toxicity: Non-toxic to cats and dogs, making it a pet-friendly houseplant.
- Mature Size: Typically grows 2-3 feet long as a trailing plant. Its small, delicate leaves make it ideal for compact spaces.
- Plant Type: Evergreen Epiphytic Vine
