Heart-Shaped Foliage with Creamy Edges

Hoya kerrii 'Albomarginata' is native to Southeast Asia and prized for its endearing heart-shaped leaves outlined with creamy white margins. This variegated form of the classic wax plant is highly sought after for its ornamental foliage and ease of care indoors or in protected outdoor spaces.

Distinctive Features

Variegated Leaves: The succulent, heart-shaped leaves are boldly edged in creamy white, providing contrast against the green centres.
Fragrant Blooms: Clusters of small, starry flowers with pink centres and creamy petals may appear on mature plants, particularly in warmer months.
Slow-Growing Climber: While often sold as a single leaf, established specimens develop into long vines suitable for baskets or trellises.

Care Tips

Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light. Some gentle morning sun is beneficial for healthy variegation, but strong afternoon sun can scorch the leaves.
Water: Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. Water sparingly during cooler months to prevent root rot.
Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity but is tolerant of typical indoor levels.
Media: Use a well-draining mix, such as one formulated for orchids or a chunky peat-free succulent blend.
Temperature: Ideal range is 18–28 °C. Protect from frost and prolonged cold exposure.
Fertiliser: Feed monthly in spring and summer with a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser. Avoid overfeeding in winter.
Repotting: Repot every 2–3 years or when root-bound. Hoyas prefer to be slightly snug in their pots.

Additional Notes

This species is slow to flower and may require several years of growth and strong light to bloom.
Non-toxic and pet safe, though ingestion is not recommended. Sticky sap may cause minor skin irritation in sensitive individuals.
