Hoya bordenii - H088 - Large Specimen Plant

This is an exceptionally large, mature specimen of Hoya bordenii - H088, with extensive established growth and long climbing and trailing vines. Plants of this age and size are rarely available, as they take many years to produce.

You will receive the exact plant photographed. It is supplied established in its hanging basket, with mature stems and vines extending well beyond the basket.

Mature Plant Condition

This is a genuine mature specimen rather than a recently produced display plant. Older Hoyas naturally develop marked leaves, bare sections of vine, woody stems, old growth points and other cosmetic imperfections as they age.

This plant has age-related marks and variations across its foliage. These are visible in the photographs and form part of the plant being offered. They do not detract from its value as an unusually large and established specimen.

Flowers

Hoya bordenii produces clusters of deep pink to maroon, star-shaped flowers with lighter contrasting centres. Established plants may flower from mature growth when provided with suitable light, warmth and seasonal conditions.

Care

• Light: Bright, indirect light. Gentle morning sun can help support flowering.
• Water: Water thoroughly, then allow most of the potting mix to dry before watering again.
• Temperature: Prefers steady warmth, ideally between 18–30 °C.
• Humidity: Standard indoor humidity is generally adequate, although moderate humidity is beneficial.
• Potting mix: Use a chunky, airy and free-draining Hoya mix.
• Fertiliser: Feed lightly during active growth in the warmer months.

Transporting a Large Specimen

We will pack this plant carefully, but a Hoya of this size cannot be secured as rigidly as a small plant. Some movement, displaced vines, leaf loss or minor stem damage may occur during transport. The vines may also need to be carefully rearranged after unpacking.

Please consider this before purchasing. Minor cosmetic or transport damage does not affect the established nature or long-term value of the plant.
