Hoya polyneura

Description

Fleshy elliptical leaves of Hoya polyneura emerge in pairs along the thin stems of this epiphyte. The delicate feel of the foliage and subtle venation resemble a fish tail, giving this rare find its common name of fishtail Hoya.

WATERING

Water when 80% of the soil is dry.

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS

FEED

REPOTTING

Repot every two years to give the roots more space to grow and to replenish the soil. Use a well draining house plant compost with 30-40% added draining medium like perlite, grit or hydroleca.
