Hoya Lacunosa Amarilo

This Hoya lacunosa cultivar glows with warm chartreuse-to-lime foliage, each small, oval leaf marbled in soft yellow patterns that intensify under brighter light—hence the name “Amarillo” (Spanish for yellow). The leaves are gently cupped, slightly succulent, and line tidy vines that can either trail or climb. When mature, it rewards growers with clusters of fuzzy, cream-white flowers that release a sweet, cinnamon-like fragrance at night.
