Hoya carnosa 'Flamingo Dream' D12 - variegated leaves and fragrant flowers

Hoya carnosa 'Flamingo Dream' is a variegated cultivar, notable for its young growth in intense shades of pink to red. As the leaves mature, the foliage combines green, cream, and white, while the pink coloration may remain visible for longer than in the usual variegated forms of Hoya carnosa. The plant has a vining habit and can be trained onto a support or left to trail. Under good growing conditions, it produces umbels of fragrant, pinkish-white flowers.

Characteristics. The leaves are thick and waxy, with green, cream, and white variegation. New growth can be bright pink or almost red, then changes shades as the leaf matures. The variegation pattern and pink intensity naturally vary between specimens, between leaves, and depending on light and season.

Flowers and fragrance. The flowers are grouped in umbels and appear in shades of pinkish white, with an intense pink to red center. They are fragrant, with a scent described as sweet and sometimes reminiscent of honey. The main flowering period is spring and summer, and the flowers last approximately 7 days.

Flowering depends on the plant's maturity and growing conditions.

Note: The price is for a single pot containing multiple plants. The length of the vines varies depending on the batch and season.

Substrate: use an airy, well-draining mix suitable for epiphytic species. We recommend the professional substrate for Hoya and Anthurium - SG Mix.
