What does Hoya sp. Sulawesi Red look like?

This hoya has no formal species name yet, so it is sold under its island of origin. The leaves are green in moderate light and flush deep red when it gets more light. How red they get depends on the plant and the spot you give it.

It grows as a vining hoya, so let it trail or give it a small trellis. Browse our other hoyas for other Sulawesi species.

How do you care for Hoya sp. Sulawesi Red?

• Light: Bright indirect light with some direct morning sun. This is what brings the red out.
• Water: Water when the mix is mostly dry. The leaves store water.
• Humidity: 50% or higher is ideal, but it adapts to room air.
• Soil: An airy, chunky mix with orchid bark and perlite.
• Temperature: 65–85°F. Keep it above 55°F.
• Pets: Hoyas are generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs. Keep it out of reach anyway, since chewing any plant can upset a pet’s stomach.

Red color is a sun-stress response, not a sign of a problem. Increase light slowly. If leaves turn yellow or bleached rather than red, pull it back from the window.
