A compact, fast-growing species producing clusters of small, fuzzy-textured flowers in rich pink-red tones with pale yellow centres. Hoya burtoniae is prized for its combination of beautiful foliage and blooms — its soft, slightly hairy leaves develop a deep bronze tint when grown in bright light. A resilient and rewarding plant for both collectors and beginners. Supplied as well-established plants in 100 mm pots.
