Hoya insularis has dark green, long and strappy leaves that will sun stress to a beautiful dark purple. Produces the most unusual inflorescence we have ever seen from a Hoya, they look like pink baby squid in a circle dance! First described as Anatropanthus borneensis in 1908, after DNA analysis in 2020 it was reclassified as a Hoya and given the name Hoya insularis.

~Do Not let Hoya sit in excess water. As epiphytes, in the wild they would be growing on tree trunks or branches in the forest understory where they would get most of their water just from dew or moisture in the air.

~Hoya are considerably hardy & tolerant of a wide range of growing conditions, but for the best growth it is recommended to provide higher levels of humidity.

~Do Not remove the peduncles [flower stalks] after your Hoya has finished flowering. Hoya are able to rebloom again & again from the same peduncle!

~Feed regularly during the growing season with a low nitrogen fertilizer containing sufficient amounts of phosphorous and potassium.
